Corymbia papuana

Corymbia papuana, formerly (and sometimes still) known as Eucalyptus papuana, is an evergreen tree that is native to New Guinea and northern Australia.^[1]

Classification

In the 1990s, Ghost Gums, along with the Bloodwoods, were reclassified from the Eucalyptus genus to the Corymbia, though not all botanists agree.^[2][3] This reclassification was based on the work of two botanists, Ken Hill and Lawrie Johnson, who worked at the National Herbarium of New South Wales in Sydney.^[2]
