Eucalyptus cyanophylla, commonly known as the Murraylands mallee, blue-leaved mallee[1] or ghost mallee,[2] is a species of mallee that is endemic to southern Australia. It has mostly smooth bark, greyish blue, lance-shaped or curved adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and conical, cup-shaped or barrel-shaped fruit.

Description

Eucalyptus cyanophylla is a mallee that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber. It has pinkish brown or white to orange bark, often with rough, fibrous grey or reddish bark on the lower trunk. Young plants and coppice regrowth have thick, greyish blue, elliptic to broadly egg-shaped leaves that are Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Adult leaves are lance-shaped or curved, the same dull bluish grey on both sides, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds sessile or on a pedicel up to Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature flower buds are oblong, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a rounded or conical operculum. Flowering occurs between August and October and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody conical, cup-shaped or barrel-shaped capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves close to rim level.[1][2][3][4][5]

Taxonomy and naming

Eucalyptus cyanophylla was first formally described in 1977 by Ian Brooker from a specimen collected near Berri by Bruce Copley.[6] The description was published in Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia.[7] The specific epithet (cyanophylla) is derived from the Ancient Greek words kyanos meaning "dark blue"[8]Шаблон:Rp and phyllon meaning "leaf"[8]Шаблон:Rp referring to the colour of the leaves.[2]

Distribution and habitat

Blue-leaved mallee grows in sandy soil, usually over limestone, in open shrubland. It is mainly found between Waikerie, Renmark and Alawoona in South Australia and in northwestern Victoria.[1][2]
