Cream albizia (A. adianthifolia) Albizia amaraThere are approximately 99 accepted species in the legume tree genus Albizia, the silk trees, sirises, or albizias. [1]Numerous species placed in Albizia by early authors were eventually moved to other genera, particularly Archidendron and many other Ingeae, as well as certain Acacieae, Mimoseae, and even Caesalpinioideae and Faboideae.
Falcataria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae. It belongs to the monophyletic Mimosoid clade [ 1 ] [ 3 ] in the subfamily Caesalpinioideae . [ 3 ] The genus has three species previously classified in the Falcataria section of the genus Paraserianthes by I.C. Neilsen.
The delimitation of Falcataria and Pithecellobium, close relatives of Albizia, is notoriously complex, with species having been moved between the genera time and again, and this will likely continue. These include Falcataria falcata (the Moluccan albizia, formerly named Albizia moluccana), a common shade tree on tea plantations.
[11] [12] Section Paraserianthes included P. lophantha with two recognized subspecies, and section Falcataria included three species (P. falcataria, P. pullenii, and P. toona). [11] [12] Based on morphology, P. falcataria (L.) I.C.Nielsen was moved to the genus Falcataria by Barneby and Grimes, [13] and renamed Falcataria moluccana (Miq.)
Uromycladium falcatarium (falcataria gall rust fungus) is a species of rust fungus in the genus Uromycladium. It was circumscribed by mycologists Doungsa-ard, McTaggart & Shivasin in 2015. [1] The species infects the Fabaceae tree Falcataria moluccana (= Paraserianthes falcataria) [1] in south-east Asia.
Tubuai has two central peaks which rise above 400 meters, and are surrounded and separated by makatea at lower elevations. Rurutu Island has volcanic hills at the center of the island, with Manureva reaching 385 meters elevation. The island was geologically uplifted, creating a continuous makatea rim along the shore that reaches 50 to 60 meters ...
