Waltraud the scribbles are caused by moths and therefore aren't diagnostic between the two species. This one looks like E.rossii to me

hm, my first guess was E. rossii - looks like there are compression lines at the base of the bole but not under the "armpits" of the branches. Both, E. rossii and E mannifera are species with smooth bark that occur in this area; E. rossi has open (sharp) scribbles and concealed scribbles such as those shown in the third photo; E. mannifera has only concealed scribbles if any.
Eucalyptus rossii
