Commercial uses – Falcataria falcata softwood is used to make match-sticks, chopsticks, shipping pallets, and wooden boxes. The pulp is used for paper-making. [10] Plywood production and veneer based products have increasingly been an important use for these trees. [6] Traditional uses – Whole tree trunks are carved for seagoing canoes.
An alternative basionym must be sought or a new name created. The correct name is Falcataria falcata (L.) Greuter & R.Rankin. [11] The four names Adenanthera falcataria, Albizia falcataria, Paraserianthes falcataria and Falcataria falcata can each be correct given different taxonomic opinions that put the plant in each of these four genera ...
Falcataria falcata had previously been classified within the genera Adenanthera, Albizia, and Paraserianthes before being moved to the new genus Falcataria, as the most widely distributed of the three species in the genus. [6] [4] This widely cultivated timber tree is still called by the common name "albizia" in Hawaii and elsewhere.
[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.)
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.
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.
On Tubuai Falcataria falcata, Furcraea foetida, Hedychium flavescens, Lantana camara, Leucaena leucocephala, Melia azedarach, Merremia peltata, Psidium guajava, and Syzygium cumini are naturalized, and Melinis minutiflora, Paspalum conjugatum, Psidium cattleianum, Rubus rosifolius, Stachytarpheta urticifolia, Syzygium jambos, and Tecoma stans ...
