Zanthoxylum martinicense, the Martinique prickly ash, white pricklyash, or espino rubial, is an evergreen tree with pinnately compound leaves and thick conical spines on its bark.[1] It grows up to 20 m tall. Male and female flowers are on separate trees. The flower clusters (panicles) are terminal and much branched, bearing many almost stalkless flowers.[2]
Distribution
West Indies[1] and northern South America including Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela.[3]
Habitat
Moist areas in limestone based soils in full sun.[1] Typical of lowland forests in the Puerto Rican moist forest ecoregion.
Ecology
The fruit has five parts, each of which splits open to reveal a single shiny black seed.[2] The seeds are small (0.0009 g) and dispersed by birds.[4]
