''Eucalyptus botryoides'', commonly known as the Bangalay or Southern Mahogany, is a small to tall tree native to southeastern Australia. Reaching up to high, it has rough bark on its trunk and branches. It is found on sandstone- or shale-based soils in open woodland, or on more sandy soils behind sand dunes. The white flowers appear in summer and autumn. It reproduces by resprouting from its woody lignotuber or epicormic buds after bushfire. ''E. botryoides'' hybridises with the Sydney blue gum (''E. saligna'') in the Sydney region. The hard, durable wood has been used for panelling and flooring. ==Taxonomy== The tree was first described by naturalist James Edward Smith in 1797, without nominating a type specimen, and still bears its original name.〔Smith, J.E. (1797) Transactions of the Linnean Society of London 3: 286〕 The species name is derived from the Ancient Greek ''botrys'' "cluster", and may relate to the clustered flowerheads and fruit.〔 It has been classified in the subgenus ''Symphyomyrtus'', Section ''Latoangulatae'', Series ''Annulares'' (red mahoganies) by Brooker and Kleinig. Its closest relatives are the red mahogany (''Eucalyptus scias'') and the Blue Mountains mahogany (''E. notabilis''), red mahogany/red messmate (''E. resinifera'') and swamp mahogany (''E. robusta''). South of Sydney Harbour and Parramatta River, ''E. botryoides'' forms hybrid populations with Sydney blue gum (''E. saligna'').
