Eucalyptus globoidea, known by the common name White Stringybark, is a tree native to eastern Australia. It has thick, fibrous bark usually colored light gray over reddish brown. It is also known for its distinctive glossy green leaves in its adult life. It favors warm humid to sub-humid climates and whitish flowers from April to June in its native Australia.

The tree was first described by naturalist W. F. Blakely in 1927.
