Zusammenfassung:The objective of this work was to estimate cardinal temperatures and phyllochron for the leaf development of the eucalyptus species Corymbia citriodora and Eucalyptus urophylla, in the seedling phase. A field experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design, in a 2x11 factorial arrangement, with the two eucalyptus species, 11 sowing dates, and five replicates, in the municipality of Itajubá, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The cardinal temperatures - base, optimum, and maximum - for leaf development were, respectively, 8.7, 17.1, and 41.3°C, for C. citriodora, and 11.5, 17.1, and 40.5°C for E. urophylla. The phyllochron of C. citriodora was 62.95°C day per leaf, and that of E. urophylla was 46.03°C day per leaf, which indicates that E. urophylla requires less energy accumulation than C. citriodora for leaf emission in the main stem. Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi estimar as temperaturas cardinais e o filocrono para o desenvolvimento foliar das espécies de eucalipto Corymbia citriodora e Eucalyptus urophylla, durante a fase de muda. Um experimento de campo foi realizado em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em arranjo fatorial 2x11, com as duas espécies de eucalipto, 11 épocas de semeadura e cinco repetições, em Itajubá, MG. As temperaturas cardinais - basal inferior, ótima e basal superior - para o desenvolvimento foliar foram, respectivamente, 8,7, 17,1 e 41,3°C, para C. citriodora, e 11,5, 17,1 e 40,5°C, para E. urophylla. O filocrono de C. citriodora foi de 62,95°C dia por folha, e o de E. urophylla, de 46,03°C dia por folha, o que é indício de que E. urophylla necessita de menor acúmulo energético do que C. citriodora para a emissão de folhas na haste principal.
