About Acronychia pauciflora C.T.White
Acronychia pauciflora is a species of shrub or tree that typically grows up to 10 metres (33 feet) tall, and has wrinkled or finely scaly, creamy-fawn coloured bark. Its leaves are simple, measuring 20–95 mm (0.79–3.74 in) long and 10–48 mm (0.39–1.89 in) wide, borne on a petiole that is usually 4–14 mm (0.16–0.55 in) long. The flowers are arranged in small clusters 8–12 mm (0.31–0.47 in) long, growing mostly from leaf axils, with each flower attached to a pedicel 0.5–2 mm (0.020–0.079 in) long. This species has four sepals around 1 mm (0.039 in) wide, four greenish white petals 4–6 mm (0.16–0.24 in) long, and eight stamens that alternate in length. Flowering takes place from December to July, and the fruit is a more or less spherical fleshy drupe that is 7–9 mm (0.28–0.35 in) long. This acronychia grows in the area between Broad Sound in central eastern Queensland, the Richmond River in north-eastern New South Wales, and inland as far as the Carnarvon Range. It occurs in rainforest and brigalow (Acacia harpophylla) scrub, growing from sea level up to an altitude of 650 m (2,130 ft).
