Tree to 20 m high (smaller at the highest elevations), with reddish brown scaly bark.[2][3] Leaves elliptic to linear, dark green, stiff, 2–7 cm long, apex acute, midrib on upper side a continuous shallow groove.[2] Male cones in groups of 3-10 on 1.5-2.5 cm long peduncles, each cone up to 1 cm long.[2][3] Seed cones axillary, solitary, purple-red when ripe; seed globose, 5–8 mm long.[2]
Distribution and habitat
Podocarpus sprucei can be found in cloud forests at 1800–3900 m of elevation in Ecuador and northern Peru.[3][1]
gollark: Since unlike with wired networks, it has a fairly small "bus" which all devices ever have to use.
gollark: I think WiFi now has a bunch of AP-side coordination mechanisms for higher throughput, which might be hard to decentralize.
gollark: Oh, wait, there is another issue, actually.
gollark: We have experimental self-organizing mesh networks already, and modern networking hardware is fairly powerful and cheap. Although I don't know how good the mesh stuff is at dealing with really fast re-peering, which is necessary in practice.
gollark: No, those are basically already solved, the incentives are difficult.
