'''Robinia pseudoacacia''', commonly known in its native territory as '''black locust''',<ref name="int"/> is a medium-sized deciduous tree native to the southeastern United States, but it has been widely planted and naturalized elsewhere in temperate North America, Europe, Southern Africa<ref name="int2"/> and Asia and is considered an invasive species in some areas. Another common name is false acacia, a literal translation of the specific name (pseudo meaning fake or false and acacia referring to the genus of plants with the same name.) It was introduced into Britain in 1636. ==Uses=={{Uses|Tentex forte}}, {{Uses|Muscle & Joint Rub}}, {{Uses|Impotency & Erectile dysfunction}}, {{Uses|Diarrhoea}}, {{Uses|Pharyngitis & Sore Throat}}, {{Uses|Toothache}}, {{Uses|Pyorrhea}}, {{Uses|Common Cold}}, {{Uses|Childhood apraxia of speech}}, {{Uses|Delayed Speech Development}}. ==Parts Used=={{Parts Used|Dried Roots}}, {{Parts Used|Leaves}}, {{Parts Used|Flower}}. ==Chemical Composition==Pioglitazone (PubChem CID: 4829)Magnolol (PubChem CID: 72300)Honokiol (PubChem CID: 72303)Falcarindiol (PubChem CID: 5281148)Resveratrol (PubChem CID: 445154)Amorfrutin 1 (PubChem CID: 10132170)Rosiglitazone (PubChem CID: 77999)Quercetin (PubChem CID: 5280343)(−)-Catechin (PubChem CID: 73160)Linolenic acid (PubChem CID: 5280934)<ref name="chemical composition"/>

== Description Common names== Black locust reaches a typical height of 40–100 feet (12–30 m) with a diameter of 2–4 feet (0.61–1.22 m).<ref name{{Common names|kn=|ml=Akkarakaaram|sa=Akarkarabh|ta=|te=|hi=Akarkara|en="des"/> Exceptionally, it may grow up to 52 metres (171 ft) tall and 1.6 metres (5.2 ft) diameter in very old trees. It is a very upright tree with a straight trunk and narrow crown which grows scraggly with age. The dark blue-green compound leaves with a contrasting lighter underside give this tree a beautiful appearance in the wind and contribute to its grace.Pellitory}}

Black locust is a shade intolerant species<ref name="des2"/> and therefore is typical of young woodlands disturbed areas where sunlight is plentiful and soil is dry, in this sense, black locust can often grow as a weed =Habit=={{Habit|tree. It also often spreads by underground shoots or suckers which contribute to the weedy character of this species. Young trees are often spiny, however, mature trees often lack spines. In the early summer black locust flowers; the flowers are large and appear in large, intensely fragrant (reminiscent of orange blossoms), clusters. The leaflets fold together in wet weather and at night (nyctinasty) as some change of position at night is a habit of the entire leguminous family.}}
