Eucalyptus flindersii, commonly known as the South Australian grey mallee, or Flinders mallee, is a mallee that is native to South Australia.
The multi- or single-stemmed mallee tree typically grows to a height of 10 metres (33 ft) and has smooth, dull, grey bark that sheds in flakes to reveal a paler layer with some rough bark persisting at the base of the trunk. Adult leaves are dull to slightly glossy, green to blue-green in colour. The blade is 180 millimetres (7 in) long and 30 mm (1 in) wide with a narrow-lanceolate to lanceolate shape.
