Anogeissus Acuminata
''Terminalia phillyreifolia'' is an Asian species of tree in the family Combretaceae. It has been called buttontree or yon (from ; IPA: ). It is a medium-sized tree found in both primary and secondary tropical and sub-tropical forests. It is recorded from India to China, south to Thailand and Vietnam. It may be one of the dominant species of deciduous forests of Vietnam. In Yunnan it is found in rocky limestone areas, near sea level to . Besides timber uses, the bark of this species has a high tannin content. Taxonomy Formerly known as ''Anogeissus acuminata'', a 2017 article embedded genera including ''Anogeissus'' into ''Terminalia''. Several varieties were accepted in the 2017 Catalogue of Life checklist; no varieties are listed in Kew's Plants of the World Online .

Anogeissus Leiocarpa
''Anogeissus leiocarpa'' (African birch; bm, ngálǎma) is a tall deciduous tree native to the savannas of tropical Africa. It is the sole West African species of the genus ''Anogeissus'', a genus otherwise distributed from tropical central and east Africa through tropical Southeast Asia. ''Anogeissus leiocarpa'' germinates in the new soils produced by seasonal wetlands. It is a forest fringe plant, growing at the edges of the rainforest, although not deep in the rainforest. It also grows in savanna, and along riverbanks, where it forms gallery forests. The tree flowers in the rainy season, from June to October. The fruit are winged samaras, and are dispersed by ants. Ethnobotany It is one of the plants used to make ''bògòlanfini'', a traditional Malian mudcloth. Small branches with leaves are crushed to make one of the yellow dyes. The inner bark of the tree is used as a human and livestock anthelmintic for treating worms, and for treatment of a few protozoan dis ...

Anogeissus Latifolia
''Anogeissus latifolia'' is a species of small to medium-sized tree native to the India, Nepal, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka. Its common names are axlewood (English), ''bakli, baajhi, dhau, dhawa, dhawra'', or ''dhaora'' (Hindi), ''takhian-nu'' (Thai), and ''raam'' (Vietnamese). It is one of the most useful trees in India. Its leaves contain large amounts of gallotannins, and are used in India for tanning and firewood. The tree is the source of Indian gum, also known as ghatti gum, which is used for calico printing among other uses. The leaves are also fed on by the ''Antheraea paphia'' moth which produces the tassar silk (Tussah), a form of wild silk Wild silks have been known and used in many countries from early times, although the scale of production is far smaller than that from cultivated silkworms. Silk cocoons and nests often resemble paper or cloth, and their use has arisen independent ... of commercial importance. Footnotes References * ''"Anogeissus latifolia"'', Agr ...

Anogeissus Dhofarica
''Anogeissus dhofarica'' is a species of plant in the Combretaceae family. It is found in Oman and Yemen, where it is endemic to the South Arabian fog woodlands, shrublands, and dune ecoregion. It is threatened by habitat loss. ''A. dhofarica'' is a tall tree which can grow up to 12 meters in height. It is dry-season deciduous, losing its leaves in November or December at the start of the winter dry season, and re-leafing when the southwest monsoon A monsoon () is traditionally a seasonal reversing wind accompanied by corresponding changes in precipitation but is now used to describe seasonal changes in atmospheric circulation and precipitation associated with annual latitudinal oscill ... brings summer rains.Christoph Oberprieler, Jörg Meister, Christine Schneider, and Norbert Killian (2009).

Combretaceae
The Combretaceae, often called the white mangrove family, are a family of flowering plants in the order Myrtales. The family includes about 530 species of trees, shrubs, and lianas in ca 10 genera. The family includes the leadwood tree, ''Combretum imberbe''. Three genera, ''Conocarpus'', ''Laguncularia'', and ''Lumnitzera'', grow in mangrove habitats (mangals). The Combretaceae are widespread in the subtropics and tropics. Some members of this family produce useful construction timber, such as idigbo from ''Terminalia ivorensis''. The commonly cultivated ''Quisqualis indica'' is now placed in the genus ''Combretum''. Many plants in the Quisqualis species contain the Non-proteinogenic amino acid excitotoxin Quisqualic acid, a potent AMPA agonist.Excitotoxic cell death and delayed rescue in human neurons derived from NT2 cells, M Munir, L Lu and P Mcgonigl, Journal of Neuroscience, Vol 15, 7847–7860 White mangroves The family name comes from the type genus ''Combretum''; it also ...
