Etymology
The term 'eucalypti' originates from the genus name 'Eucalyptus', which itself comes from the Greek words 'eu' meaning 'well' and 'kalyptos' meaning 'covered', referring to the operculum that covers the flower buds. Eucalyptus trees are predominantly found in Australia, where they comprise over 700 species, and they vary significantly in size and habitat. The introduction of these trees to other parts of the world began in the 18th century, and they are now cultivated for timber, oil, and ornamental purposes. Eucalyptus oil, extracted from the leaves, has a rich history in traditional medicine and is widely used for its therapeutic properties. In addition to their economic benefits, eucalypti play essential roles in their native ecosystems, serving as habitats for various flora and fauna, notably including the koala, which primarily feeds on eucalyptus leaves.
