Description
The cupaniopsis (Cupaniopsis) are a group of tropical shrubs and small trees. Many species within the genus are considered vulnerable and threatened, largely due to habitat destruction and competition from invasive species. Some cupaniopsiss, most notably the Tuckeroo (C. anacardioides), have become invasives themselves. The Tuckeroo and a handful of other cupaniopsiss are planted as ornamentals, being prized for their verdant foliage and their tolerance to salinity.
