Bursera Fragilis
''Bursera'' is a genus with about 100 described species of flowering shrubs and trees varying in size up to high. It is the type genus for Burseraceae. The trees are native (often for many species endemic) to the Americas, from the southern United States south through to northern Argentina, in tropical and warm temperate forest habitats. It is named after the 17th-century Danish botanist Joachim Burser. Several Mexican species (such as '' B. aloexylon'' and '' B. delpechiana'') produce a type of wood known as ''linaloe'' (from Mexican Spanish , from Latin , ). They contain the aromatic oil linalool. A number of species from tropical Asia were once included in this genus, but are now treated in the genus ''Protium''. Species list sources : Formerly placed here *''Canarium paniculatum'' (Lam.)

It is native to the Neotropics (where around 175 species have been found), Madagascar, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and southern Asia from Pakistan east to Vietnam. The genus had been included in ''Bursera'', but is distinct, being most closely related to '' Crepidospermum'' and ''Tetragastris''.
