Trevoa trinervis is a species of actinorhizal plant within the family Rhamnaceae; this dicotyledon flora is a shrub or small tree. The genus was first proposed by Miers in 1825, but was not fully described until 1830 by Sir William Jackson Hooker.[1] T. trinervis is notable for its ability to fix nitrogen. This species mainly occurs in the near coastal forests and arid shrubland of Chile . Example occurrences are found in the mountains of central Chile ; for example, it occurs in the La Campana National Park in association with Acacia caven and Jubaea chilensis.[2] as well as other proximate areas of central Chile.
