Eucalyptus woodwardii, lemon-flowered mallee also Woodward's blackbutt, is a small tree or mallee that is endemic to Western Australia. The Noongar name for the tree is Gungurra.

The tree typically grows to a height of 6 to 15 metres (20 to 49 ft) and has smooth, white, pink, greenish or light copper coloured bark that sheds in ribbons. Juvenile leaves are stalked, ovate to broad-lanceolate to elliptical, to 18 x 9 cm. Adult leaves are stalked, broad-lanceolate, 18 x 5 cm, concolorous, dull, grey-green to glaucous. Lemon yellow flowers appear in late winter to late spring. Fruit is bell shaped to 1.5 x 1.4 cm

E. woodwardii' is found on flats and rises with a field distribution that is limited to east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia in the Karonie area, and with sand or deep sandy loam.

The tree is a very popular ornamental in southern Australia due to its attractive, large, lemon-yellow flowers.
In the 1970s hybrids between this and coral gum (E. torquata) called Torwood had been developed
