The monophyly of these genera was later supported in a 2003 phylogenetic study of the family. [6] In the Wettstein system , this family was the only one placed in the order Verticillatae. Likewise, in the Engler , Cronquist , and Kubitzki systems , the Casuarinaceae were the only family placed in the order Casuarinales.
The genera Allocasuarina was created out of a grouping of plants formerly placed in Casuarina, because of subtle but consistent differences – Casuarina species have 6 to 20 scale-like teeth in each whorl of leaves, their samaras are grey or yellowish-brown, and the bracteoles of the fruiting cones are thin, woody and extend well beyond the ...
Allocasuarina media is a species of flowering plant in the family Casuarinaceae and is endemic to a small area of Victoria.It is a dioecious, rarely a monoecious shrub that has more or less erect branchlets up to 200 mm (7.9 in) long, the leaves reduced to scales in whorls of six to eight, the fruiting cones usually 14–27 mm (0.55–1.06 in) long containing winged seeds (samaras) 5–8 mm (0 ...
