The basal bark to about 2 m above ground level looks like E. melliodora but all bark above that is smooth. A branch towards powerlines has been pruned about 9 m above ground level. A large branch has torn off, leaving a scar on the trunk from about 5 m to 7.5 m above ground level. There is a suspended branch about 4 m long and 6 cm basal diameter about 6 m above ground level.
