<i>Millettia laurentii</i> Species of legume

Millettia laurentii is a legume tree from Africa and native to the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Gabon and Equatorial Guinea. The species is listed as "endangered" in the IUCN Red List, principally due to the destruction of its habitat and over-exploitation for timber. Wenge, a dark coloured wood, is the product of Millettia laurentii. Other names sometimes used for wenge include faux ebony, dikela, mibotu, bokonge, and awong. The wood's distinctive colour is standardised as a "wenge" colour in many systems.

Acmella leucantha is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to Ecuador, where it is known from three locations in the Andes and one on Puná Island. The Andean subpopulations grow in forests and the dry vegetation of mountain valleys. The island subpopulation occurs in coastal habitat. The species is threatened by habitat destruction, including deforestation on Puná Island.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cucurbitacin</span> Class of biochemical compounds

Cucurbitacins are a class of biochemical compounds that some plants – notably members of the pumpkin and gourd family, Cucurbitaceae – produce and which function as a defense against herbivores. Cucurbitacins and their derivatives have also been found in many other plant families, in some mushrooms and even in some marine mollusks.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Malvidin glucoside-ethyl-catechin</span> Chemical compound

Malvidin glucoside-ethyl-catechin is a flavanol-anthocyanin adduct. Flavanol-anthocyanin adducts are formed during wine ageing through reactions between anthocyanins and tannins present in grape, with yeast metabolites such as acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde-induced reactions yield ethyl-linked species such as malvidin glucoside-ethyl-catechin.
