Eucalyptus stoatei

Eucalyptus stoatei, commonly known as scarlet pear gum or Stoate's mallee,[1] is a tree that is native to a small area along the south coast of Western Australia.

[2]The tree will typically grow to a height of 2 to 7.5 metres (7 to 25 ft) and has white or grey-brown smooth bark and a slender habit.

Insects are not able to access the large pendulous flowers because the stamens form an impassable dome over the floral cup.

[7] The species name stoatei honours T.N.Stoate who was the Senior Assistant Conservator of Forests in Western Australia at the time of the plants discovery.

[8] It is found on flats and rises in a small area between Ravensthorpe and Esperance, Western Australia where it grows in gravelly sand, clay or loam soils.
