Biology:Connarus
From HandWiki
Connarus is a genus of plants in the family Connaraceae with a pan-tropical distribution.
Description
Plants in this genus are vines, shrubs or small trees. Leaves are compound, either trifoliate or imparipinnate. The inflorescences are panicles, usually Template:Botanygloss or Template:Botanygloss, individual flowers are bisexual (i.e. each having both male and female organs), pentamerous (with five parts), and covered with glands; petals are free of each other, there are ten stamens in two whorls, the inner whorl shorter, and one carpel. The fruit are flattened follicles, often with a Template:Botanygloss at the base and a small beak at the apex, opening on a longitudinal suture. Seeds one, black with a fleshy yellow sarcotesta.[1][2][3][4]
Distribution and habitat
Connarus species are distributed throughout the tropics of Africa, Asia and the Americas, and extends into some temperate areas as well (southern Brazil and southern China).[5][6]
