"Eucalyptus botryoides", Bangalay or Southern Mahogany, is a small to tall tree. The height may be up to 40 metres. Rough bark covers the trunk and larger branches, this is thick, fibrous, and grey-brown to red-brown.

Adult leaves are stalked, broad-lanceolate, to 16 cm long by 40 cm wide, discolorous and dark green. Calyptra on the bud is partly sperical or conical, the hypanthium is the same width and longer. The fruit is ovoid or cylindrical in shape, between 7 - 12 mm long, 4 -6 diameter, with the valve near the rim or enclosed.

White flowers appear in summer.

Distribution is coastal south eastern Australia from near Newcastle on the mid coast of New South Wales to eastern Victoria in the Lakes Entrance area. [Brooker, I. & Kleinig, D., "Eucalyptus, An illustrated guide to identification", Reed Books, Melbourne, 1996] The species was introduced to Western Australia, where is is listed as an alien. [FloraBase|name="Eucalyptus botryoides"|id=17359]

The tree was first described by naturalist James Edward Smith in 1797, without nominating a type specimen. [Smith, J.E. (1797) Transactions of the Linnean Society of London 3: 286 (APNI)]
