	Schinus terebinthifolius (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Schinus is a native of Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil.
		Schinus has many characteristics possessed by other weedy pioneer species: it grows rapidly; it is a prolific seed producer; its foliage flushes nearly continuously; it coppices vigorously; and it tolerates a wide range of site conditions.
		Since Schinus transpiration rate per unit leaf area is unusually high, and since it generally occupies an emergent canopy position, Schinus acts as a strong sink for soil-applied herbicides, thus minimizing leaching losses and off-target damage.

	Brizilian Pepper Plant
		The name Schinus is derived from the word 'schinus', the Latin name for the Mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus L.), also of the same family, which this genus resembles in its resinous juice (Correll and Correll 1982).
		Schinus terebinthifolius was first reported growing in a farmed area of the Park known a Hole-in-the-Donut in 1959 (Alexander and Crook, 1974) but probably became established there in the 1940's (Olmstedand Johnson, 1983).

		Sometimes overlooked in favor of its famous relative, the Schinus molle, S. terebinthifolius has a much more masculine and sculptural quality that is equally desirable.
		The spicy fragrance of pepper is present as with all Schinus varieties.
		Schinus terebinthifolius is well suited to inland and coastal areas where frost danger is minimal and temperatures typically remain above 25 degrees F. Western Garden zones 13, 15-17 and 19-24 are well suited to this South American native, as is zone 14 when the tree is given shelter from the low winter temperatures.

		Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthefolius Raddi) is the focus of a major restoration project in Everglades National Park, and here I have attempted to broaden our understanding of this plant and the phenomenon of its invasion.
		Brazilian pepper is more likely to harbor exotic ants than native habitats (52% versus 36% of species were exotic respectively), and exotic ants are more likely to be found in both hammock and Brazilian pepper than in only one or the other (67% of species found in both habitats were exotic).
		As for ants, most of the species encountered in and around houses and gardens are common tropical exotics, most noticeably the exotic fire ants Solenopsis invicta Buren and Wasmannia auropunctata (Roger).

		The purpose of this study is to determine if and how Schinus terebinthifolius out-competes or inhibits growth of the red, fl and white mangroves.
		In Mosquito Lagoon, this will be accomplished by determining the ability of Schinus terebinthifolius to: 1) chemically inhibit growth of mangrove propagules, 2) invade coastal habitats by dispersing seeds in water, 3) tolerate conditions within the mangrove canopy, and 4) alter species richness and abundance of the flora when present in a mangrove system.
