Sandbox Tree
Hura crepitans


Typically, what is found in the beach drift is only a semi-circular piece (see fig. above) of the original seed pod.
The seed pod explodes, sending seeds and these semi-circular pieces of the pod in all directions.
The "Wayne's Word" link, below, has detailed information and great images of the entire seed pod.
