It is a tree or shrub highly variable in its form, the size and shape of its leaves, in the number of flowers in a group and in the shape of its fruit. It is endemic to Hawai{{okina}}i.[2][3] DescriptionMyoporum sandwicense grows as either a small tree, large tree, or dwarf shrub, depending on the elevation and conditions. As a small tree, it reaches a height of {{convert|9|m|ft}} with a trunk diameter of {{convert|0.3|m|ft}}. The largest naio have a height of {{convert|18|m|ft}} and a trunk diameter of {{convert|0.9|m|ft}}. At the tree line, naio grows as a {{convert|0.6|m|ft|adj=on}} shrub. The bark on older specimens is often dark, rough and furrowed.[4] The leaves are arranged alternately, often crowded near the ends of the stems, mostly {{convert|60-135|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long, {{convert|11-25|mm|in|sigfig=1}} wide, elliptic to lance-shaped and with a distinct mid-vein on the lower surface. Flowers are present all year and are arranged in groups of 2 to 6 in leaf axils on stalks {{convert|4.5-18|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long. They are a tubular bell shape with a fragrant odor and there are 5 lance-shaped sepals and 5 petals forming the tube. The tube is generally white or pink with darker blotches at the base of the lobes and the tube is usually {{convert|1.5-3.5|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long with lobes about the same length. The fruit is a waxy white drupe that is {{convert|8|mm|in}} in diameter, juicy, and bitter to taste. The fruit usually dry out and remain attached to the branch.[2][3][4]TaxonomyMyoporum sandwicense was first formally described in 1866 by Asa Gray and the description was published in Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[1][5] The specific epithet sandwicense refers to the Sandwich Islands, the name given by James Cook to the Hawaiian Islands, where the type specimen was collected.[2]There are two subspecies:[2]
In 1951 Grady Webster included a form found in the Cook Islands as Myoporum sandwicense subsp. wilderi[6] but it is now known as Myoporum wilderi Skottsb. [7] Some sources describe varieties including degeneri Webster, fauriei (Levl.) Kraenzlin, st.-johnii Webster, and stellatum Webster.[8] In addition, a prostrate, shrubby variety known as naio papa ("flat naio") grows only at South Point on the island of Hawai{{okina}}i and is characterized by its similarities to creeping shrubs.[9] Distribution and habitatThe distribution of M. sandwicense in the United States is limited to the state of Hawai{{okina}}i. Within the state, it is found on all of the major islands[3] at elevations from sea level to {{convert|2380|m|ft}}.[10] Naio can be found in a variety of habitats, including low shrublands, dry forests, mesic forests, and wet forests, but is most common in subalpine shrublands.[3] EcologyCurrently, a large mixed māmane (Sophora chrysophylla)-naio forest on the island of Hawai{{okina}}i serves as the home of the palila (Loxioides bailleui), an endangered native bird.[19] UsesIndigenous usesThe finely-textured wood of M. sandwicense is hard and has a specific gravity of 0.55.[11] Native Hawaiians, who called the wood {{okina}}a{{okina}}aka, used it to make manu (bow and stern ornamental end pieces) and pale (gunwales) for wa{{okina}}a (outrigger canoes), pou (house posts),[12] haha ka {{okina}}upena (fishing net spacers),[10] and lamalama (long-burning torches for night fishing). The oily wood was also used as a substitute for {{okina}}iliahi (Santalum spp.) due to the similarity in smell when burned.[13] HorticultureM. sandwicense can be cultivated using seeds separated from the fruit - the average germination time varies by reports but is most commonly noted as taking between six and eighteen months. Propagation by cuttings and air layering is also possible.[3]Other usesFor a short time in the 19th century after most {{okina}}Iliahi (Santalum freycinetianum) had been harvested, naio was exported to China, where it was made into incense and burned in Joss houses.[14] However, unlike true sandalwood, the wood of naio does not retain its scent for long periods, as when made into furniture.
