Ecotypes: Examples
A number of distinct forms of E. obliqua occur in the Otways region of south-western Victoria.
In this example, E. obliqua is growing in a mixed tall-open forest stand with blue gum ( E. globulus ). Rainfall at such sites is high (1000 - 1500 mm per annum) and soils are generally fertile. Tree heights may exceed 50 m on the best sites.
