'''''Eucalyptus acmenoides''''', the '''White Mahogany''' is a common [[eucalyptus]] tree of eastern [[Australia]]. In the northern part of [[Sydney]], where this tree grows on clay soils, the [[Indigenous Australians|indigenous]] name is '''Barayly'''.<ref name=robionson>Les Robinson - Field Guide to the Native Plants of Sydney, ISBN 9780-0-7318-1211-0 page 40</ref> 

According to [[Joseph Maiden]], the specific epithet ''acmenoides'' refers to [[Johannes Conrad Schauer|Schauer]]'s observation of a supposed similarity with the leaves of the rainforest tree [[Syzygium smithii|Lilly Pilly]], previously known as ''Acmena smithii''. However, any similarity with the two types of leaves appears obscure. (See leaf photo comparison below).
