Eucalyptus trees are most commonly associated with Australia, as certain species form the sole food source for koalas. In Australia they are called "gum trees". However, other species of eucalyptus trees can be found in New Zealand, China, India, Thailand, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Brazil, USA and Italy.

The eucalyptus tree originated from Australia. There are over 700 species of eucalyptus, and most of them are native to the Australian continent. A small number originated from New Guinea and Indonesia, close neighbours to Australia.
