Description
Eucalyptus horistes is a mallee or small tree that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber. It has smooth greyish bark, often with rough, firm fibrous bark on the base or all of the trunk. Young plants and coppice regrowth have sessile, heart-shaped, more or less round or elliptic leaves Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Adult leaves are glossy green, narrow lance-shaped to elliptic, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils in groups of seven, nine, eleven or thirteen on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on pedicels Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval to spindle-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a beaked operculum. Flowering occurs from November to December or January and the flowers are creamy white. The fruit is a woody, short cylindrical to shortened spherical capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves near rim level.[1][2][3][4]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus horistes was first formally described in 1988 by Lawrie Johnson and Ken Hill from a specimen collected near Binnu and the description was published in Flora of Australia.[5] The specific epithet (horistes) is an ancient Greek word meaning "one who marks boundaries", referring the distribution of this species at the northern limit of the South-west Botanical Province.[1][6]
Distribution and habitat
This eucalypt grows in mallee shrubland in sandy-loam soils over laterite on sand plains, sand dunes and road verges from areas in the Mid West, extending through the Wheatbelt and into the Great Southern and Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia.[2][4]
Conservation status
Eucalyptus horistes is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[4]
