Saurauia oreophila is a species of flowering plant in the family Actinidiaceae. [2] [3] It is found in Guatemala and Mexico. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Sarracenia oreophila, also known as the green pitcherplant, is a carnivorous plant in the genus Sarracenia. It has highly modified leaves in the form of pitchers that act as pitfall traps for prey. The narrow pitcher leaves are tapered tubes that rise up to 75 centimetres (30 in) from the ground, with a mouth 6 to 10 centimetres in circumference Like all the Sarracenia, it is native to North America. Sarracenia oreophila is the most endangered of all Sarracenia species, its range limited to a handful of sites in northern Alabama, North Carolina, Georgia, and—historically—Tennessee.
Aralia excelsa is a species of flowering plant in the family Araliaceae. It is native to Mexico, Central America, northern South America and parts of the Caribbean.
Dypsis oreophila is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Huertea cubensis is a species of plant in the family Tapisciaceae. It is found in Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti.
Saurauia is a genus of plants in the family Actinidiaceae. It comprises about over 300 species distributed in the tropics and subtropics of Asia and South and Central America. Genetic evidence and the cell biology of the group support monophyly of the genus. Monophyly of the genus is also supported by micromorphological characters and by phylogenetic analysis, although the exact evolutionary relationships of Saurauia with the other two genera of the Actinidiaceae, Actinidia and Clematoclethra, are not well understood. It is also the only extant genus within its family whose natural distribution includes areas outside of Asia.
Saurauia harlingii is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saurauia lehmannii is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saurauia mahmudii is a species of plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is a tree endemic to Peninsular Malaysia. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saurauia scabrida is a species of flowering plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Saurauia seibertii is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is endemic to Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saurauia striata is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saurauia tambensis is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Sideroxylon cartilagineum is a species of plant in the family Sapotaceae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Baccharis salicifolia is a blooming shrub native to the sage scrub community and desert southwest of the United States and northern Mexico, as well as parts of South America. Its usual common name is mule fat; it is also called seepwillow or water-wally. This is a large bush with sticky foliage which bears plentiful small, fuzzy, pink, or red-tinged white flowers which are highly attractive to butterflies. It is a host plant for the larval stage of the fatal metalmark butterfly, and the adult stage also nectars on the flowers.
Anaxagorea crassipetala is a species of understory tree in the family Annonaceae. It is found frequently in the lowland rainforests of Costa Rica and Panama, but extends down to Peru.
Saurauia clementis is a species of flowering plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is endemic to the Philippines. Elmer Drew Merrill, the American botanist who first formally described the species, named it after Mary Strong Clemens, the American botanist who collected the specimen that he examined.
Saurauia copelandii is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family. It is native to the Philippines. Adolph Daniel Edward Elmer, the American botanist who first formally described the species, named it in honor of Edwin Copeland, another American botanist who collected many botanical samples in the Philippines.
Saurauia klemmei is a species of plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is native to the Philippines. Elmer Drew Merrill, the American botanist who first formally described the species, named it after Wilhelm Klemme, a German forest officer, who collected the specimen Merrill examined from Luzon island in the Philippines.
Saurauia papillulosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is endemic to the Philippines where it is known as papayang. Elmer Drew Merrill, the American botanist who first formally described the species, named it after the distinctive abundant small bumps, or papillae, on the underside of its leaves.
Saurauia elegans is a species of plant in the family Actinidiaceae. It is native to The Philippines. In The Philippines it is commonly called uyok and is used as a traditional medicine for lung ailments and also to decorate food dishes.
