Though early Hawaiians may not have used iliahi wood extensively, it was still valued. Besides used as firewood, the light yellow wood was sometimes used to make kk or musical bow.Medicinally, the leaves were used as a shampoo for dandruff and head lice; and a drink from powdered material for male and female sex organs or "for sores of long duration."The fragrant heartwood and bark of iliahi was pounded to scent the smell of new kapa (tapa), and when added with coconut oil the would water proof the material.One older source (Charles Gaudichaud,1819) states that Hawaiians "used all fragrant plants, all flowers and even colored fruits" for lei making. The red or yellow were indicative of divine and chiefly rank; the purple flowers and fruit, or with fragrance, were associated with divinity. Because of their long-standing place in oral tradition, the leaves, new leaves (liko) and flowers of iliahi were likely used for lei making by early Hawaiians, even though there are no written sources.EtymologyThe generic name Santalum is derived from santalon, the Greek name for sandalwood.The specific epithet freycinetianum is named in honor of Captain Loius de Freycinet (1779-1840), commander of the French exploration on board of which was Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupre, the first Western botanist to come to the Hawaiian Islands.NPH00022

2011-01-06 Vienna XXII. district/ Lower Austria, district Gnserndorf (Lobau 155 m AMSL).Mistletoe bearing fruit: they're quite sticky and for this reason annoyingly stick to the beaks of birds eating them, which is why they try and get rid of them by rubbing their beak on twigs of other trees - which, in turn, is the method of spreading mistletoe seeds: cleverly thought out by evolution, don't you think?German name: Laubholz-Mistel

Hausgraben habitat, 155 m AMSL).Hundreds of Viscum album grow here on Populus trees (predominantly Populus nigra I would say, but surely also plenty of Populus alba, also the hybrids P. canescens and P. canadensis are possible and likely candidates).Hausgraben lies just beyond the line of trees.German name: Laubholz-Mistel
