Gommier de Camaldoli ou Gommier des rivières
- Nom local : Red river gum, Cazneaux Tree
- Classification (Famille - Genre espèce) : Myrtaceae - Eucalyptus camaldulensis
- Description : Référence Australian National Botanic Gardens - Botanical Web Portal
Life form :
Eucalyptus camaldulensis is a perennial, single-stemmed, large-boled, medium-sized to tall tree to 30 m high, although some authors record trees to 45 m. River red gum could reach ages of 500 to 1000 years.
Distribution :
Eucalyptus camaldulensis is found over most of the Australian mainland, except southern Western Australia, south-western South Australia and the eastern coastal areas of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria . It is widespread along rivers of all continental Australia.
Habitat :
Eucalyptus camaldulensis commonly grows on riverine sites, whether of permanent or seasonal water. It is most extensive on grey heavy clay soils along river banks and on floodplains subject to frequent or periodic flooding, preferring deep moist subsoils with clay content. It also lines the channels of sandy watercourses and creeks, commonly forming ribbon stands but sometimes extending over extensive areas of regularly flooded flats. It can also occur in the higher reaches of creeks in major valleys of hilly country and infrequently on the margins of salt lakes.

Originaire d'Australie mais répandu ailleurs.
Très résistant mais perd brutalement de grosses branches, TIMBER (cri du bûcheron anglo-saxon pour prévenir qu'un arbre tombe) !

Attaqué par des insectes, rien ne l'affecte
