About

Allosyncarpia is a genus of plant in the eucalypt family Myrtaceae. It contains a single species, Allosyncarpia ternata, which is endemic to the Northern Territory, Australia. Both were described in 1981 by Stanley Thatcher Blake of the Queensland Herbarium.

Where it grows

They grow in sandstone gorges along creeks emerging from the Arnhem Land plateau. The tree dominates the closed monsoon rainforest communities along the sandstone escarpment of the western Arnhem Land Plateau. The distribution of the species appears to be limited to areas not subject to wildfire.
