Usambazaji
Upper Florida Keys, Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands, and Leeward Islands to Guadeloupe in Lesser Antilles. Also from southern Mexico to Panama and northern South America along the coasts of Colombia, Venezuela, and the Guianas. West Indies, Coastal Central and South America, from Mexico to the Guyanas. Owing to this species' ability to withstand salt-water spray, coupled with its attractive appearance, it has been widely planted for landscaping in Southern Florida, where it is mostly known as Black Olive and sold as Oxhorn Bucida. Grown in the open, Jucaro quickly branches out and leaves tend to cluster toward the branches' tips.In forest environment, the tree will reach heights in excess of 100 feet and diameters up to five feet. Mostly free of branches to 40 or 50 feet, it produces massive straight logs of excellent quality

Picha za mbao
Picha za kihistoria zilizounganishwa na rekodi hii ya spishi.
Miradi na Msukumo
Chunguza matumizi yanayowezekana, kisha mwambie Woodley unachotaka kutengeneza.
Picha za miradi ni mifano ya msukumo tu, si picha za kutambua spishi. Ufaafu unapaswa kuthibitishwa kwa kutumia data ya spishi na mahitaji ya mradi.

Ungependa kutengeneza nini?
Mwambie Woodley unachofikiria. Woodley anaweza kusaidia kuchunguza kama Jucaro inafaa na kuelekeza hatua zinazofuata.
Mwongozo wa mradi unaweza kujengwa juu ya rekodi hii ya spishi, sifa zake na matumizi yaliyorekodiwa.

Product Sources
Although Jucaro is available in large quantities within its growth range, it is rare in the lumber form on the world market. For general construction uses, the wood is rather too hard to be useful. It is as dense as Lignum-vitae, but it lacks the natural self-lubrication which makes Lignum-vitae such a popular wood for making marine bearings.
