    • 2016, Antonio Madridejos, “El araar de los jardines de Pedralbes”, in elPeriódico[1]:
      El araar, el árbol nacional de Malta, es una conífera adaptada a la sequía, a menudo de aspecto desordenado, copa poco densa y con unas inconfundibles hojas escuamiformes, como si fueran minúsculas escamas.
      The sandarac tree, the national tree of Malta, is a drought-adapted conifer, often chaotic in appearance, with a sparse crown and distinct scale-like leaves, similar to tiny scales.
