	Jarrah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jarrah trees are also unusual in that they have a lignotuber, a large underground swelling which stores carbohydrates and allows young trees to re-grow after a fire.
		Jarrah is an important element in its ecology, providing numerous habitats for animal life, especially birds and bees, while it is alive, but also in the hollows that form as the heartwood decays, and when it falls, it provides shelter to ground-dwellers such as the chuditch (Dasyurus geoffroii), a marsupial cat.
		Jarrah wood is very similar to Karri wood, and as both trees are found in the south west of Australia, the two timbers are frequently confused.

		Its greatest merit for shipbuilding and marine purposes is due to the fact that it resists, better than any other timber, -the attacks of the Teredo navalis and other marine borers, and on land it is equally exempt, in tropical countries, from the ravages of white ants.
