A new location for this species I think.

Yep, this is potentially very exciting! I've had a look at all three sightings, but I'm just a tad hesitant to confirm myself. Juvenile leaves look good in this one, but are variable in a couple of others so those trees may be another species. The fruit depicted in this sighting is not that of E.camphora, looks more like E.melliodora but i could be wrong there. Did it come from these trees? Or was it collected from the ground instead?

Having said all of that, this sighting looks really good. How cool to have them in Bullen Range!

I'd love to go out there with someone! The first stand I found I am 99% confident. Then got confused after I came back across the creek, haha. There was a huge variety. That fruit I picked off a tree but could have been confused at that time with the polyanthemos and others in the area.

I’d be down, I go on midsem break after next week so potentially have some time in there.

I'll take the fruit picture down, and then very confident with E. camphora subsp. humeana for this.
