Blackers. You’re the best, I’ve always got mush room for your great comments. AW

One of my favourite moments, accidentally coming across Eucalyptus deglupta Rainbow Gum on Sulawesi in the Lore Lindu National Park at 1700mm.
This is the northern most species of Eucalyptus extending right up into southern Phillipines as well as Sulawesi.
It highlights the once tropical rainforest origin of Eucalyptus radiation.

The progenitor of all Eucalyptus species is the native plant on New Caledonia, Arillastrum gummiferum a totally original rainforest plant.
Coupled with Allosyncarpia ternata in Northern Territory and Stockwellia quadrifida in the Atherton Tablelands and Eucalyptopsis found in New Guinea and the Moluccas.
These four plants are the ancestors of known Eucalyptus sp.

Roadkill. Hi mate. Hope you’re well.

I’ve got loads more to post between surfing, let alone all the 246 species of endemic birds we saw, my colleague is handling that end. I’ll upload bird stuff when I get it. All the best. AW
