Brooker, M.I.H. & Hopper, S.D. (21 February 1986), Notes on the informal subgenus "Monocalyptus" of Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae) and the description of three new upland species from south-west Western Australia. Nuytsia 5(3): 346-351, Figs 3 (map), 4-5 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "Mt. Michaud, c. 1 km NW of Mt. Lesueur (30°15′S, 115°12′E) 22 April 1982, S.D. Hopper 2232 (holo: PERTH (Figure 4); iso: FRI, NSW, MEL, AD, K)."
  • Etymology: "The specific epithet alludes to the lateritic gravel which dominates the upland soils of the Mt Lesueur region, and which contrasts with the deep sands occupied by E. todtiana F. Muell., the species with the closest apparent affinity to E. lateritica."
