About

Eucalyptus similis, commonly known as inland yellowjacket or Queensland yellow jacket, is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to Queensland, Australia. It is a tree with rough bark, lance-shaped to broadly lance-shaped or sickle-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white or cream-coloured flowers and cylindrical to cup-shaped or barrel-shaped fruit.

Where it grows

Found in woodland communities, Eucalyptus similis grows on gentle slopes and flats in deep clay, loamy or sandy soils, in a narrow north-south band from near Forsayth to the Barcaldine-Jericho region in Central Queensland with two disjunct populations near Laura and east of Strathburn Station on Cape York in North Queensland.
