• APC Comment: Hybrids are recorded between E. loxophleba and both E. absita and E. wandoo [FloraBase]. Eucalyptus brachyphylla was considered by Pryor & Johnson (1971) to be a hybrid between E. kruseana and E. ovularis, but this was not confirmed by Chippendale (1988). Subsequently, considered to be a hybrid of E. kruseana and E. loxophleba (see Grayling & Brooker, Aust. J. Bot. 44: 1-13 (1996)).
