Conocarpus is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the family Combretaceae, native to tropical regions of the world. One of the species is a widespread mangrove species, and the other is restricted to a small area around the southern Red Sea coasts, where it grows alongside seasonal rivers.

They are dense multiple-trunked shrubs or small to medium-sized trees from 1 to 20 m tall.

The generic name is derived from the Greek words κονος (konos), meaning "cone" and καρπος (karpos) meaning "fruit".[2]

Distribution

Buttonwood tree at Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas

C. erectus is native to the coasts of tropical America from Bermuda, the Bahamas, and southern Florida through the West Indies, from Mexico south on the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, and Atlantic Coasts to Brazil, and on the Pacific Coast from Mexico to Peru, including the Galapagos Islands, and on the coast of western Africa from Senegal to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It has been rarely introduced elsewhere.[3] C. lancifolius is native to Somalia and Yemen, and is cultivated in eastern and northern Africa and the Arabian peninsula.[4]
