The internal hairs of the corolla are obvious, not Epacris.

Yes, it is a redgum. But my interest is the strange pattern. I assume it was done by a person if there is no chance it could be natural. Other insects produce strange patterns on the bark of trees.

Eucalyptus sp.

Don’t know why, I couldn’t reinstate elatinoides and resorted to Undo.

Glossostigma elatinoides

Apologies, that is a bad typo by me. Thanks for picking that up.
The calyx teeth were 4. I just re-checked ( live material retained for a herbarium specimen ), so definitely elatinoides even though flowers are white-ish. Leaves are 9 mm long. Oddly, none of the flowers seem to have any stamens but all have a wide stigmatic lobe.

Doubtful for this to be cleistanthum, as its pedicels are very short and fruit develops in soil on downturned pedicels: no hint of downturning here, and pedicels are too long.
