Description
Eucalyptus indurata is a tree or mallee that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Convert and forms a lignotuber. It has rough, hard, furrowed, blackish bark similar to that of an ironbark on some or all of the trunk, smooth whitish bark above. Young plants and coppice regrowth have sessile, heart-shaped to egg-shaped leaves Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide and arranged in opposite pairs. Adult leaves are glossy green, lance-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils in groups of seven on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on pedicels Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a prominently beaked operculum that is longer than the floral cup. It blooms between June and September producing white to pale yellow flowers. The fruit is a woody, shortened spherical capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves protruding above the rim.[2][3][4]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus indurata was first formally described by the botanists Ian Brooker and Stephen Hopper in 1993 in the journal Nuytsia from a specimen collected near Dalyup in 1983.[4][5] The specific epithet (indurata) is from the Latin induratus, 'hard', referring to the hard, rough bark of this species.[2][4]
Distribution and habitat
Ironbark is found on undulating plains and rises along the south coast from near Ravensthorpe to Balladonia in the Coolgardie, Esperance Plains, Mallee and Nullarbor biogeographic regions where it grows in yellow sandy-clay soils.[3]
Conservation status
This eucalypt is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[3]
