Pyrularia (diminutive of Pyrus; alluding to the shape of the fr.). Santalaceae. Oil-Nut. Buffalo-Nut. A shrub in E. N. Amer. and 2 trees in the Himalayas with alternate, deciduous, entire lvs. and greenish fls. in spikes or racemes: fls. subdioecious, apetalous; sepals and stamens 4-5; filaments short; ovary inferior, 1-celled, with 2-3 ovules: fr. a 1-seeded drupe. The species in cult. is P. pubera, Michx. (P. oleifera, Gray). A straggling shrub, to 12 ft., puberulous while young: lvs. short-petioled, obovate-oblong, acute or acuminate, cuneate at the base, minutely punctulate, 2-6 in. long: spikes terminal, few-fld.; calyx 5-cleft: fr. pear-shaped or subglobose, yellowish, about 1 in. long, crowned by the ovate calyx-lobes, containing an acrid oil like the whole plant. May. Pa. to Ga. and Ala. B.B. (ed. 2) 1:641.—Of no particular ornamental value, but botanically interesting; half-parasitic on the roots of Tsuga like Buckleya, which see for cult.
