Corymbia peltata, commonly known as yellowjacket or rustyjacket,[2] is a species of small to medium-sized tree that is endemic to Queensland.

It has rough, tessellated bark on the trunk and larger branches, smooth yellowish bark above, a crown of mostly juvenile egg-shaped to round leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and barrel-shaped, urn-shaped or shortened spherical fruit.

[2][3][4][5] This eucalypt was first formally described in 1867 by George Bentham who gave it the name Eucalyptus peltata and published the description in Flora Australiensis.

[3][8] The specific epithet (peltata) is from the Latin word peltatus meaning peltate, referring to the attachment of the petiole to the leaf blade.

[2] Yellowjacket is listed as of "least concern" under the Queensland Government Nature Conservation Act 1992.
