Ficus superba var. henneana : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ficus superba var. henneana
''Ficus superba'' var. ''henneana'' is a strangler fig only occurring in Australia. It is a variety of ''Ficus superba'' which occurs in China, Japan and parts of South East Asia. The cedar fig or deciduous fig grows in Australia from Milton, New South Wales to northern Queensland and the Northern Territory. The habitat is riverine, littoral or the drier forms of rainforest. The fruit is considered edible for humans, but it is not particularly palatable. == Collection and Naming ==
This Australian variety was named after Diedrich Henne, who collected this plant at Booby Island in the Torres Strait in 1861. In 1868 it was named ''Ficus henneana''. Joseph Banks also collected this plant from the Booby Island on August 23, 1770. That specimen may have been from the same tree as Henne's specimen, (as the island is so small). Banks' plant was named in 1901 after the Endeavor's artist Sydney Parkinson, (Ficus parkinsonii). However, this name fell out of favour as ''Ficus henneana'' was already named in 1868. The specific epithet ''superba'' is from Latin referring to "outstanding" or "superb". The plant has had other scientific names, such as ''Ficus gracilipes'', ''Ficus pritzelii'' and ''Urostigma superbum''. The tree is semi deciduous, seldom losing all leaves. It may be seen almost bare of leaves in the month of October.
