Acacia mangium

Willd.

Fabaceae


Classification of the genus Acacia (in the wider sense) has been subject to considerable debate. It is generally agreed that there are valid reasons for breaking it up into several distinct genera, but there has been disagreement over the way this should be done. As of 2017, it is widely (but not completely) accepted that the section that includes the majority of the Australian species (including this one) should retain the name Acacia, whilst other sections of the genus should be transferred to the genera Acaciella, Mariosousa, Senegalia and Vachellia[

Known Hazards

The seed of many Acacia species, including this one, is edible and highly nutritious, and can be eaten safely as a fairly major part of the diet. Not all species are edible, however, and some can contain moderate levels of toxins[

Medicinal

The bark of all Acacia species contains greater or lesser quantities of tannins and are astringent. Astringents are often used medicinally - taken internally, for example. they are used in the treatment of diarrhoea and dysentery, and can also be helpful in cases of internal bleeding. Applied externally, often as a wash, they are used to treat wounds and other skin problems, haemorrhoids, perspiring feet, some eye problems, as a mouth wash etc[

The heartwood is yellow-brown, sometimes with olive-brown streaks; it is clearly demarcated from the cream-coloured sapwood. The texture is medium; the grain straight. The wood is light in weight; hard to soft; of low durability being susceptible to dry wood borers and termites and moderately susceptible to fungi. It seasons rapidly but with a high risk of distortion and checking; once dried it is stable in service. The wood works well with ordinary tools; nailing and screwing are poor; gluing is best carried out with phenol resins. It is suitable for construction, boat building, furniture and cabinet making, particleboard, plywood, veneer and fenceposts[
