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 persistant, 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]
