"Allocasuarina luehmannii" (buloke or bull-oak) is a species of she-oak native to Australia. Stands are endangered by farming practices in the Wimmera region of western Victoria, where it is integral to the survival of the endangered southeastern subspecies of the Red-tailed Black Cockatoo for feeding and nesting.
