Eucalyptus species identification (III): buds work

Share

By their fruits ye shall know them (III)
More small tips on Eucalyptus Identification

Gustavo Iglesias Trabado Contact GIT Forestry Consulting

We have previously seen in EUCALYPTOLOGICS how bark features alone can be misleading for accurate
Eucalyptus species identification, showing examples of different bark types for the same eucalypt species and of similar bark types for different eucalypt species. Today we will see how in some cases just a small sample of flower buds can yield an accurate identification.


Eucalyptus species identification by botanical comparison of flower buds and fruits / Identificacion botanica de especies de eucalipto por comparacion de flores y frutos / Eucalyptus gomphocephala, Tuart / GIT Forestry Consulting, Consultoría y Servicios de Ingeniería Agroforestal, Galicia, España, Spain / Eucalyptologics, information resources on Eucalyptus cultivation around the world / Eucalyptologics, recursos de informacion sobre el cultivo del eucalipto en el mundoFig. 1: Example of flower bud based diagnosis useful for accurate Eucalyptus species identification (Click image to enlarge)

Our good friend Dan at Tree-Species.com found a strange looking Eucalyptus growing in Málaga and followed our recommended sequential observation process for eucalypt identification. He later sent us photographs of the overall outlook of the tree, its bark and of samples of reproductive organs (flower buds & seed cups) he collected from the tree.

(Click image to enlarge)

These flower bud samples were what allowed an accurate botanical identification of this
Eucalyptus tree (see Fig. 1) by comparison to an holotype (botanical plate) and to specimens of that eucalypt species growing in its natural Australian habitat. And the solution was Eucalyptus gomphocephala, literally meaning "bolt-headed well-covered flower", also known by its vernacular name Tuart.

In addition, a look back in time and paying attention to eucalypt experts of the past does normally yield some sort of useful complementary data that helps to support or reject a purported Eucalyptus species identification. O Grande Ernesto diz:



"In the Mediterranean Basin it follows E. camaldulensis and E. globulus as the most used species for afforestation, especially in Northern Africa. It has been promoted in Southern Morocco to plant on calcareous soils, mostly on coastal dunes. Actually, existing plantations on the dunes of Agadir and Mogador and at Sidi Bibi have proven this species to be of great interest, both as a way to fight the moving sands and as allowing to achieve a valuable production in these vast and previously improductive areas. (...) Total acreage planted with E. gomphocephala in Morocco reaches some thousand hectares. Also in Algeria, Tripolitania, Cyprus and Israel it is a quite planted species. In other Mediterranean countries only in Spain it has been used for plantings of certain importance, especially in the coastal dunes of Malaga."

Ernesto da Silva Goes (1960) Os eucaliptos em Portugal.


Eucalyptus species identification for this tree as E. gomphocephala makes sense then both in a botanical and an historical sense. No doubt, Eucalyptology is an interdisciplinary science.

EUCALYPTOLOGICS celebrates its 1st birthday

Share

TODAY IS EUCALYPTOLOGICS BLOGOVERSARY!

One year ago this divulgative project on Eucalyptus cultivation around the world named EUCALYPTOLOGICS was started as GIT Forestry Consulting's weblog. One year later, in its first blogoversary, we celebrate the positive evolution of our pet project with some First Year Balance statistics and a compilation of the Top 15 topics our readers have favoured along this wonderful trip together.

Data courtesy Google Analytics.

More than 200 Academic Organisations (Universities, Colleges & Schools), 150 Corporate Firms (Primary Resources, Industry & Services, excluding IT) and 70 Governmental Agencies (Local, Regional, National & International) in 94 countries around the world are among EUCALYPTOLOGICS readers.

EUCALYPTOLOGICS is a highly specialised interdisciplinary information resource targeted to a niche audience even if we try to deliver a mix of technical and non technical information to make it accessible to all. We rather quality than quantity.

According to Alexa, the Web Information Company, EUCALYPTOLOGICS has experienced a +650% traffic increase in the last 3 months and is steadily climbing its traffic rank. According to NetCraft estimates, there are currently some 160 million websites in the World Wide Web, of which roughly 70 million are active websites. Crossing both data sets, it can be roughly estimated that GIT Forestry Consulting's Eucalyptus Blog EUCALYPTOLOGICS is currently in the top 5% of the World Wide Web.

These results are very pleasing, but must be taken humbly. We are a very small grain of sand compared to the giant rolling stones of the Internet beach. And a niche information resource. Our aim must always be quality.

Thank you very much to all our readers, big or small, for making this possible!

Eucalyptus in Portugal: Environmental Impact & Scientific Research

O Eucaliptal em Portugal: Impactes Ambientais e Investigação Científica
(Eucalyptus cultivation in Portugal: Environmental Impacts & Scientific Research)


A new publication on sustainable Eucalyptus cultivation has recently been made available by Instituto Superior de Agronomía (ISA) at Lisbon.

An update of the 1990 book Impactes ambientais e sócio-económicos do eucaliptal em Portugal by Monteiro Alves, Santos Pereira & Galvão Borges, along the 400 pages of O Eucaliptal em Portugal you can find a summary of the latest scientific research on topics highly related to Eucalyptus sustainable cultivation, covering impacts on soil, water or biodiversity, plus their relationship with forest fires and climate change.

A wide range of authors from Portugal but also high profile international researchers have contributed with their recent findings to give the reader a wide range view on the latest scientific state-of-the-art for Eucalyptus environmental impact identification and assessment.

An attractive editorial effort, a good base technical resource for those interested in these always polemic topics and a good starting point to then take a further step into more specialised literature. Essential for forestry and environmental science students, R+D officers at the pulp & paper industry and those interested in the scientific angle of sustainable Eucalyptus forestry.
