t</hw>, <i>n</i>. The name is given in Queensland
to the fruit of <i>Aleurites moluccana</i>, Willd.,

in Australia, but the vernacular name of <i>Candle-nut</i> is
confined to Australia and the Polynesian Islands.

"Candle-nut. The kernels when dried and stuck on a reed are
used by the Polynesian Islanders as a substitute for candles,
and as an article of food in New Georgia. These nuts resemble
walnuts somewhat in size and taste. When pressed they yield a
large proportion of pure palatable oil, used as a drying-oil
for paint, and known as country walnut-oil and artists' oil."

same size as a common goose, the plumage a handsome mottled
brown and gray, somewhat owl-like in character."

[Cape Barren Island is in Bass Strait, between Flinders Island
and Tasmania. Banks Strait flows between Cape Barren Island
and Tasmania. The easternmost point on the island is called
Cape Barren.]
