Eucalyptus cyclostoma is a eucalypt that is native to Western Australia.[1]

The tree typically grows to a height of 1.5 to 4 metres (5 to 13 ft) and has flaky to ribbony bark that can be rough or smooth. It blooms between February and April and produces white flowers. Found on limestone plains on the south western Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia growing in sandy loam or red sand soils.[1]

The species was first formally described by the botanist Ian Brooker in 1981 as part of the work A new series, Oulares, of the genus Eucalyptus based on the subseries Ovularinae as published in the journal Brunonia.[2]
