Triumfetta rhomboidea, commonly known as diamond burbark,[2] Chinese bur, or kulutkulutan in Tagalog, is a shrub that is extensively naturalised in tropical regions.[3][4] It is thought that to have come to Australia from China.[3] Its bark—sometimes called burbark--makes a kind of jute.
The taxon was first formally described in 1760 by botanist Nikolaus von Jacquin.[5]
Description
Various sources give the number of stamens as being between 8 and 15.[6][7][8][9] The fruit is round to slightly ovoid[8] and about 6 millimetres (0.2 in) in diameter with smooth spines which are about 2 millimetres (0.1 in) long.[3] The stems are covered in star-shaped (stellate) hairs.[8] Its embryology was described by Venkata Rao in 1952.[10]
