L.A.S.Johnson Allocasuarina lehmanniana , commonly known as dune sheoak , is a shrub in the family biology family Casuarinaceae . Endemic to Western Australia , it is widespread along on the coast from the Murchison River Western Australia Murchison River south to Israelite Bay, Western Australia Israelite Bay . Dune sheoak grows as an upright shrub from three to five metres tall 10 16 ft . As with other Allocasuarina species, its foliage consists of slender green branchlets informally referred to as needles but more correctly termed cladode s. The cladodes are segmented, and the true leaves are tiny teeth encircling each joint. Most specimens bear only male or female flowers, but some specimens will bear both. Male trees have small brown flower spikes at the end of branchlets. Female trees bear small flowers on short branchlets of their own. Fertilised flowers develop egg shaped cones from 1 to 3 centimetres 0.6 1.2 in in diameter. Dune Sheoak was first collected in 1840 by Johann Priess . The specific name lehmanniana honours the botanist Johann Lehmann . There are two subspecies Allocasuarina lehmanniana ecarinata Allocasuarina lehmanniana subsp. ecarinata and Allocasuarina lehmanniana lehmanniana Allocasuarina lehmanniana subsp. lehmanniana .
