Araucaria bidwillii Hook. Coniferae (Araucariaceae). BUNYABUNYA. Australia; the bunya-bunya of the natives. The cones furnish an edible seed which is roasted. Each tribe of the natives has its own set of trees and each family its own allotment among them. These are handed down from generation to generation with the greatest exactness and are believed to be the only hereditary personal property possessed by the aborigines.
