Piscidia piscipula

''Piscidia piscipula'', commonly named Florida fishpoison tree, Jamaican dogwood, or fishfuddle, is a medium-sized, deciduous, tropical tree endemic to southern Florida, the Florida Keys, Texas, the Caribbean, and Latin America.〔 ( University of Florida. School of Forest Resources and Conservation. Florida Forest Trees: Fishpoison tree (''Piscidia piscipula''). )〕 Native Americans of the West Indies discovered extracts from the tree could sedate fish, allowing them to be caught by hand.〔 This practice led to the tree's common names—fishpoison and fishfuddle. The tree has medicinal value as an analgesic and sedative.〔(Auxence, Elena G. 1953. A pharmacognostic study of ''Piscidia erythrina''. Economic Botany 7(3): 270-284 )〕
The generic name is Latin for "fish killer", and the specific epithet is Latin for "little fish".〔Nellis, David N. 1994. Seashore plants of South Florida and the Caribbean: A guide to identification and propagation of xeriscape plants. Pineapple Press. 160 p.〕
==Habitat==
The Florida fishpoison tree grows in coastal zones. It prefers well-drained, sandy soils, with a top layer of humus.〔( Institute for Regional Conservation: Jamaica-dogwood )〕 The tree has some tolerance to short-term storm surges of brackish water or seawater. Although it grows in coastal conditions, the tree is usually protected from direct salt spray by adjoining vegetation. Established trees are highly tolerant of drought. Its sensitivity to the cold limits Florida fishpoison tree to areas no colder than plant hardiness zone 11.
