--><p><i>Casuarina equisetifolia</i> is widely cultivated in many parts of the world because of its salt tolerance; it is now considered an invasive pest in parts of Florida. Only <i>C. equisetifolia </i>subsp.<i> equisetifolia</i> is known from the flora area. <i>Casuarina equisetifolia</i> subsp. incana (Bentham) L. A. S. Johnson, from Australia and the Pacific Islands region, is cultivated elsewhere in the world and possibly has been introduced to (although not yet discovered in) the flora area. That subspecies is a smaller tree with a more rounded crown, longer and thicker branchlets, and more pubescent branchlets and infructescences.</p>
