Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Casuarina pauper is a tree native to a band across the drier, inland areas of southern Australia. It is a dioecious tree, 5 to 15 metres tall and up to 0.5 metre in diameter, with bark that is hard, dark brown to blackish, with a tight scaly appearance. Its foliage is not composed of true leaves but rather of jointed branchlets that function like leaves. It produces abundant viable seed, with regeneration success likely to be inhibited during periods of insufficient soil moisture required for seedling survival. It is fast growing and improves the levels of nitrogen in the soils, and its timber is hard and durable, suitable for fencing, woodturning and firewood. Indigenous people traditionally use the hard wood of Casuarina species for making a number of implements. It is not considered rare or endangered.
