''Cupaniopsis baileyana'' is a species of flowering tree in the soapberry family. It is native to eastern Australia. Common names include White Tamarind and Toothed Tuckeroo. The species name honours the botanist F.M.Bailey. The habitat is on the edge of rainforest on fertile soils, at mid to high altitudes. Sometimes also seen at lower altitudes. It can be a pioneer species, growing in areas of forest disturbance. The range of natural distribution is from Newcastle, New South Wales to Main Range National Park, in south eastern Queensland.〔Floyd, A.G., ''Rainforest Trees of Mainland South-eastern Australia'', Inkata Press 2008, ISBN 978-0-9589436-7-3 page 386〕 == Description == A small tree, to 13 metres tall with a dense crown. The trunk is mostly round, but with flanges on some individuals. Bark is smooth, grey or brown. Small branches green, fairly smooth and thick, with leaf scars. Compound leaves are 17 to 30 cm long with 8 to 20 leaflets. Leaflets narrow oblong or elliptic to reverse lanceolate in shape. Toothed or without teeth, 4 to 9 cm long, and 1 to 2.5 cm wide. The main midrib of the leaf is raised on both sides, as are the many lateral veins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=PlantNET - NSW Flora Online )〕 Domatia often occur where the main leaf vein meets the lateral veins. This distinguishes this species from ''Cupaniopsis serrata'' and ''Cupaniopsis flagelliformis''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cupaniopsis baileyana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
