Eucalyptus urophylla S. T. Blake |
Eucalyptus urophylla is a species of Eucalypt native to islands of the Indonesian Archipelago and Timor. It has been used to produce hybrid species as it appears to be insect-resistant, including a timber with a trade name of "Lyptus", hybridised with Eucalyptus grandis, commonly known as the Rose Gum or Flooded Gum.[1]
It is the floral emblem of East Timor.
