basionym: Eucalyptus redunca var. oxymitra Maiden legitimate
  • APC Dist.: WA
  • Etymology: "A new specific epithet is needed for this taxon because Maiden's varietal name oxymitra is already in use at the species level for Sarp-capped Mallee, E. oxymitra Blakely, of the central Australian region. The new specific epithet refers to the colour of the flowers (Latin flavidus, yellow)."
