Default Lisbon: Help identifying trees

I'm doing some research for a project and I'm wondering if there is someone out there, maybe Lisboetas or tree afficionados, who could help me identify some trees in particular locations in Lisbon.
Specifically: the trees in the Largo do Carmo; the Praça de Luis de Camões, and the singular tree with the circular bench running around its base in Largo Academia Nacional Belas Artes . Any assistance greatly appreciated.
PS. I'm outside Portugal (and so have no physical access myself)

This might be of help. You can type any of those locations in the search box to get a list of the trees in the area and see where exactly each one is by clicking on the relevant +

Arvoredo no concelho de Lisboa

Thanks RedEric. That's perfect. Who'd have thought there was such a site. It even tells you the height of each tree. Obrigado.

I don't think that's the tree height - it's distance from the designated spot.

haha.Yes. of course. Stupid of me. Some of those 'heights' would be rather impressive. Thanks.

Wow, that has got to be the most succinct and helpful answer to a request ever.
Bam!

Who would have thought that anyone would even think of, let alone make such a resource.
Or maybe in Architecty-BlackorRed-Frame-Spectacled/Roll-neck-Sweatered circles, its a thing?

Now I can plan my trips to the smoke to avoid those stale urine stinking Jacaranda trees (that I am also highly allergic too, even if they weren’t so stinky)
