The fruits of the plant are quite round, are black in colour and 3/8 wide.[5] EcologyThe fruits produce many seeds which are often attacked by the larvae of Orneodes objurgatella, a species of moth.[5] HabitatThe species can be found growing in dry shrub land and in dry to moist forests at elevations of up to {{convert|2700|ft|-2}}.[5] UsesNative Hawaiians used the very hard wood of alahe{{okina}}e to make ko{{okina}}i alahe{{okina}}e (adzes for cutting softer woods such as Erythrina sandwicensis), {{okina}}ō{{okina}}ō (digging sticks), and {{okina}}o (short spears). A black dye was made from the leaves.[4]References1. ^1 2 {{cite web | title = Psydrax odorata | url = http://apps.kew.org/wcsp/namedetail.do?name_id=170275 | work = World Checklist of Selected Plant Families | publisher = Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew | accessdate = March 23, 2015 }} 2. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&search_value=35150 |title=Canthium odoratum (G.
