Brachychiton acerifolius
''Brachychiton acerifolius'', commonly known as the Illawarra Flame Tree, is a large tree of the family Malvaceae native to subtropical regions on the east coast of Australia. It is famous for the bright red bell-shaped flowers that often cover the whole tree when it is leafless. Along with other members of the genus ''Brachychiton'', it is commonly referred to as a Kurrajong.
==Naming and etymology==
''Brachychiton acerifolius'' was first described in 1855 by W. Macarthur and C. Moore. It is sometimes spelled as ''Brachychiton acerifolium'', under the assumption that the genus name ''Brachychiton'' is (Greek) neuter. In fact, ''Brachychiton'' is masculine, and hence the correct species epithet is ''acerifolius''. The name ''Brachychiton'' is derived from the Greek ''brachys,'' meaning short, and ''chiton,'' a type of tunic, as a reference to the coating on the seed. The specific epithet ''acerifolius'' suggests the appearance of the foliage is similar to that of the genus ''Acer,'' the maples.
