Horseflesh Mahogany
Lysiloma sabicu
Lysiloma sabicu, the sabicu, horseflesh, or horseflesh mahogony, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae. It is native to the Bahamas, Cuba, and Hispaniola, and it has been introduced to Florida and Puerto Rico. A tree reaching 20 m (66 ft), it is typically found growing on limestone soils, but also on lateritic and serpentine soils, in a variety of forest and shrubland types at elevations from 4 m (10 ft) to 1,100 m (3,600 ft). A source of sabicu wood, it has been assessed as Least Concern.
