Claim about toxicity removed, unsubstantiated. I got a bit suspicious after my 17 month old son ate some unripe berries and suffered no ill effects. EKhayaICT ( talk) 18:08, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
I also wonder about toxicity and have noticed that cattle eat the seed and seedling with relish. In pastures, only the large trees survive.
isnt this just the old name for neem? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Superruss ( talk • contribs) 13:29, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't their be a mention of the unique foul odor the berries have? They really stink. 24.155.22.84 ( talk) 07:54, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
A major revision of the various pages about this genus and species is clearly needed. One component is that the synonym list for this species seems to need updating, and there is a list of synonyms at The Plant List. However, it seems premature to make these revisions because that list has many entries with low-confidence indicators, and it doesn't appear to have completely incorporated David Mabberley's 1984 monograph that is cited on this page. Work for the future ... Sminthopsis84 ( talk) 13:44, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Where are they? In particular, that dreadful hairy caterpillar which plagues (praise be to your favourite deity!!) the trees annually. Unfortunately, that caterpillar/moth itself has no predators in Australia, but has no mortal effect on the tree. Very much a Cane-Toad thing. 121.44.165.190 ( talk) 10:33, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
How can you recognise this tree from other trees that look similar and/or from within the same genus? This would be a cool sub-header to add.
There are two "Uses" sections in the article, and they repeat some of the same information. I should add that the wood is useless for firewood and especially for cooking, because it smells like burning plastic. Wastrel Way ( talk) 22:42, 27 March 2024 (UTC)Eric
