Information

Trees or shrubs; branchlets winged, glabrous. Leaves alternate, entire, coriaceous, glabrous. Flowers borne in axillary fascicles, (4–)5(–6)-merous, small, sessile or pedicellate. Calyx small in flower, lobed, subcoriaceous, accrescent and usually enveloping the fruit at maturity, sometimes reflexed. Petals valvate, ± free and pubescent on the inner surface. Stamens twice as many as petals, free or adnate to petal-base, usually arranged in 2 whorls, with the episepalous filaments or stamens as a whole slightly longer than the epipetalous whorl, or more rarely arranged in 1 whorl; filaments filiform or flattened; anthers ± globular. Ovary superior, 3-partite at the base and almost so to the apex; ovules 3, pendulous, anatropous; style short; stigma 3-lobed. Fruit a drupe, globose to ellipsoidal, glabrous.
