Eucalyptus carnei also known as the Carne's blackbutt is a eucalypt that is native to an area in central of Western Australia.[1]
Description
The tree or mallee typically grows to a height of 2.5 to 10 metres (8 to 33 ft) and can have smooth or rough bark. It blooms between February and May and produces white yellow flowers.[1] The dull, grey-green, thick, concolorous adult leaves are disjunct. The leaf blade has a lanceolate shape and is basally tapered, dull, grey-green, thick, concolorous. The simple conflorescence has an axillary position and has seven flowered umbellasters with peduncles that are broadly flattened. The buds have a cylindrical or conical shape and form into cylindrical fruits.[2]
Taxonomy
The species was first formally described by the botanist Charles Austin Gardner in 1929 as part of the work Contributions Florae Australiae Occidentalis as published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia.[3] The specific epithet honours the botanist Walter Mervyn Carne.[2] It is also a part of the Eucalyptus subgenus Symphyomyrtus section Bisectae subsection Glandulosae that are defined by the bisected cotyledons and buds have a scar on the operculum and branchlets with oil glands in the pith. E. carnei is only very closely related to one other species, Eucalyptus stricklandii, and they form the series Stricklandianae.[2]
Distribution
The species is found in stony skeletal soils and red sand and on rocky laterite it is distributed through the Goldfields and Mid West regions of Western Australia.[1] The range extends east of Meekatharra and Sandstone and into the Great Victoria Desert.[2]
The type specimen was collected by Gardner near Sandstone in 1927.[4]
