The Annonaceae are a family of flowering plants consisting of trees, shrubs, or rarely lianas commonly known as the custard apple family or soursop family. With 108 accepted genera and about 2400 known species, it is the largest family in the Magnoliales. Several genera produce edible fruit, most notably Annona, Anonidium, Asimina, Rollinia, and Uvaria. Its type genus is Annona. The family is concentrated in the tropics, with few species found in temperate regions. About 900 species are Neotropical, 450 are Afrotropical, and the remaining are Indomalayan.
Carica is a genus of flowering plants in the family Caricaceae including C. papaya, the papaya, a widely cultivated fruit tree native to the American tropics.
Acronychia is a genus of about fifty species of plants in the rue family Rutaceae. The leaves are simple or pinnate, and the flowers bisexual with four sepals, four petals and eight stamens. They have a broad distribution including in India, Malesia, Australia and the islands of the western Pacific Ocean. About twenty species are endemic to Australia.
Vasconcellea is a genus with 20 or 26 species of flowering plants in the family Caricaceae. Most were formerly treated in the genus Carica, but have been split out on genetic evidence. The genus name has also been spelled "Vasconcella".
Psychotria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. It contains 1,582 species and is therefore one of the largest genera of flowering plants. The genus has a pantropical distribution and members of the genus are small understorey trees in tropical forests. Some species are endangered or facing extinction due to deforestation, especially species of central Africa and the Pacific.
Anaxagorea phaeocarpa is a species of plant in the Annonaceae family. It is found in Costa Rica and Honduras.
Anaxagorea is a genus of flowering plants in the subfamily Anaxagoreoideae in the family Annonaceae. There are about 26 species, distributed in Central and South America.
Psychotria crassipetala is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. This species was firstly described by E. Petit in 1964 and believed endemic to Kenya for a long time, but recently found also in Tanzania.
Ceratostylis is a genus of orchids with more than 140 species distributed in China, India, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, the Philippines, and Melanesia.
Helixanthera is moderately sized genus of showy mistletoe with over 40 species from tropical Africa, southern Asia and Malesia. The genus was described already 1790 by the Portuguese botanist João de Loureiro in his Flora Cochinchinensis. A new species, Helixanthera schizocalyx, was described in 2010.
