Eucalyptus extrica, commonly known as eastern tallerack,[1] is a eucalypt that is native to Western Australia.[2]
The spreading mallee typically grows to a height of 1 to 4 metres (3 to 13 ft). It has smooth light grey over brown bark that becomes persistent, rough, ribbony bark on the lower stems. It blooms between January and April producing white flowers.
E. extrica is found in coastal areas in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia between Esperance and Cape Arid where it grows in sandy soils over limestone.[2]
It has a similar habit to Eucalyptus pleurocarpa but it differs noticeably by having longer, narrower leaves, which are green and non-glaucous, and by the non-glaucous buds and fruits.[3]
The species was first formally described by Dean Nicolle in 2000 in the work Three new taxa of Eucalyptus subgenus Eudesmia (Myrtaceae) from Queensland and Western Australia published in the journal Nuytsia.[4]
