Eucalyptus macrorhyncha, commonly known as red gum or red stringybark, is a small to medium-sized tree with rough, thick fibrous and stringy, dark-brown bark.
Adult leaves are stalked, lanceolate, to 15 x 2.5 cm, concolorous, and slightly glossy green. White flowers appear in mid summer to mid autumn.
E. macrorhyncha was first recognised as a distinct species and given its name by Ferdinand von Mueller. In 1867, George Bentham published a formal description in Volume 3 of his Flora Australiensis. Bentham's description was based on syntypes collected by Mueller and Frederick Adamson.
The tree occurs on ranges and tablelands of New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory and Victoria, with a small, disjunct population south-west of Clare in South Australia.
