Eucalyptus cypellocarpa
Also called Mountain Grey Gum, Monkey Gum, Mountain Gum, Spotted Mountain Grey Gum, Mountain Blue Gum, Small Fruit Mountain Gum, Spotted Mountain Gum
Eucalyptus cypellocarpa, commonly known as mountain grey gum, mountain gum, monkey gum or spotted mountain grey gum, is a species of straight, smooth-barked forest tree that is endemic to southeastern Australia. It has relatively large, lance-shaped to curved adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and usually cylindrical or barrel-shaped fruit.
Mountain gum is found in New South Wales and Victoria where it tends to grow in wet sclerophyll forest, in gullies and on mid-altitude hillsides, from 30.25 to 39 degrees south. It grows from near sea level altitudes to 1,200 m (3,900 ft) and in cool to warm, humid to sub-humid environments with a temperature distribution of −2–31 °C (28–88 °F) with an annual rainfall of 700–1,300 mm (28–51 in). In New South Wales it is widespread in wet forests south from Tamworth, and in Victoria it is widespread in the south-east, including in the Black Range, Grampians and Pyrenees.
