Bruguiera exaristata, commonly known as the rib-fruited mangrove or rib-fruited orange mangrove, is a mangrove of the family Rhizophoraceae.[1][2]
The species is pollinated by birds.[3](p129) The species also contains tropine esters of acetic, benzoic, n-butyric, isobutyric, propionic, and isovaleric acids.[4] The tropane alkaloid brugine is found in the bark of this species.[5]
Description
Bruguiera exaristata is a mangrove, forming mangrove swamps of small trees or shrubs with self-supporting growth in shallow saline or brackish water.[6]
Distribution
It is native to Lesser Sunda Islands, New Guinea and Northern Australia.[7] It can be found along the coast at the mouth of the De Grey River,[8] but it is rare in North West Cape.[9]
