Eucalyptus creta, commonly known as the large-fruited gimlet,[2] is a species of mallet or tree that is endemic to Western Australia.

The fruit is a woody, hemispherical to shallow cup-shaped capsule with two wings along the sides and the valves at the same level as the rim or extended beyond it.

[2][3][4][5] Eucalyptus creta was first formally described in 1991 by Lawrie Johnson and Ken Hill from a specimen collected north of Mount Ney, north-east of Esperance.

[4][6] The specific epithet (creta) is a Latin word meaning "grow" or "increase",[7] "referring to the buds, flowers and fruit".

[3][5] This eucalypt is classified as "Priority Three" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife[3] meaning that it is poorly known and known from only a few locations but is not under imminent threat.
