Family: Clusiaceae
High Risk Traits:
- Thrives in tropical climates
- Grows from 100-1400 m in native range
- Naturalized in Queensland, Australia
- Possibly naturalized on Molokai (targeted for eradication)
- Shade-tolerant (may be able to spread into forest understory)
- Tolerates many soil types (potential to exploit many habitats)
- Self-compatible
- Animal-dispersed seeds (Possibly certain birds, pigs, rats, and mongoose in Hawaii)
Low Risk Traits:
- Evidence of negative impacts unspecified
- Edible fruit
- Requires 5 or more years to reach fruit bearing age
- Fruits and seeds relatively large and unlikely to be spread accidentally
- Seeds unlikely to persist in soil
