}} ''Ficus variegata'' is a well distributed species of tropical fig tree. It occurs in many parts of Asia, islands of the Pacific and as far south east as Australia. There is a large variety of local common names including common red stem fig, green fruited fig and variegated fig. A non strangling fig which may reach 30 metres in height. In Australia the fruit are eaten by cassowaries and double-eyed fig parrots.〔 ==Taxonomy== ''Ficus variegata'' has been described by Carl Ludwig Blume in 1825. In 1965, E. J. H. Corner updated the species by putting some other ''Ficus'' in synonymy with ''F. variegata'' varieties. Five were listed: ''F. variegata'' var. ''variegata'' distributed on all the species range, ''F. variegata'' var. ''chlorocarpa'' from South China, Hainan Island and Thailand, ''F. variegata'' var. ''garciae'' described as inhabitant of the Pacific Islands (Ryukyu islands, Taiwan and Philippines), ''F. variegata'' var. ''ilangoides'' in Luzon and northern Borneo, and ''F. variegata'' var. ''sycomoroides'' in the Philippines and Borneo. Recently, all the varieties have been synonymized under ''Ficus variegata''. ''Ficus variegata'' belongs to the subgenus ''Sycomorus'' section ''Sycomorus'' subsection ''Neomorphe''. 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「Ficus variegata (plant)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
