Description

Allocasuarina misera is a dioecious or monoecious shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and has smooth bark. Its branchlets are more or less erect, up to Шаблон:Cvt long, the leaves reduced to erect, scale-like teeth Шаблон:Cvt long, arranged in whorls of five to seven around the branchlets. The sections of branchlet between the leaf whorls are Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide. Male flowers are arranged in spikes Шаблон:Cvt long, in whorls of six to twelve per centimetre (per 0.39 in.), the anthers Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature cones are cylindrical and sessile or on a peduncle up to Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt in diameter, the winged seeds dark reddish-brown to black, and Шаблон:Cvt long.[1][2]

Taxonomy

Allocasuarina misera was first formally described in 1989 by Lawrie Johnson in the Flora of Australia from specimens collected near Anglesea in 1986.[3][4] The specific epithet, (misera) means "wretched", referring to the appearance of this species compared to the related A. paradoxa.[4]

Distribution and habitat

This casuarina is found heath or open woodland in sandy soil, often near the coast in isolated and scattered populations across Victoria.[1][4]
