Hylocereus Monacanthus1ANKA
''Hylocereus'' is a former genus of epiphytic cactus, cacti, often referred to as night-blooming cactus (though the term is also used for many other cacti). Several species previously placed in the genus have large edible fruits, which are known as pitayas, pitahayas or dragonfruits. In 2017, a Molecular phylogenetics, molecular phylogenetic study confirmed an earlier finding that the genus ''Hylocereus'' was nested within ''Selenicereus'', so all the species of ''Hylocereus'' were transferred to ''Selenicereus''. Description The species previously placed in the genus ''Hylocereus'' grow hanging, climbing or epiphytic. They are freely branched, shrubby plants that form aerial roots and become very large with a height of 10 m or more. The green, often glaucous shoots are usually terete or triangular. Taxonomy In the 1994 classification of the International Cactaceae Systematics Group of the International Organization for Succulent Plant Study, the genus ''Hylocereus'' was one ...

Selenicereus Escuintlensis
''Selenicereus'', sometimes known as moonlight cactus, is a genus of epiphytic, lithophytic, and terrestrial cacti, found in Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and northern South America. The term night-blooming cereus is also sometimes used, but this is also used for many night-blooming cacti, including '' Epiphyllum'' and ''Peniocereus''. In 2017, the genus ''Hylocereus'' was brought into synonymy with ''Selenicereus''. A number of species of ''Selenicereus'' produce fruit that is eaten. The fruit, known as '' pitaya'' or ''pitahaya'' in Spanish or as dragon fruit, may be collected from the wild or the plants may be cultivated. Description Clambering plants with flat to angled stems, producing aerial roots. Areoles may be with or without spines. Flowers are large and nocturnal, pollinated by moths or rarely bats. The receptacle bears small bracts, hairs and usually spines. Fruits bear numerous spines. Flowers are generally produced in abundance with mature plants and ar ...

Historically Recognized Angiosperm Genera
History (derived ) is the systematic study and the documentation of the human activity. The time period of event before the invention of writing systems is considered prehistory. "History" is an umbrella term comprising past events as well as the memory, discovery, collection, organization, presentation, and interpretation of these events. Historians seek knowledge of the past using historical sources such as written documents, oral accounts, art and material artifacts, and ecological markers. History is not complete and still has debatable mysteries. History is also an academic discipline which uses narrative to describe, examine, question, and analyze past events, and investigate their patterns of cause and effect. Historians often debate which narrative best explains an event, as well as the significance of different causes and effects. Historians also debate the nature of history as an end in itself, as well as its usefulness to give perspective on the problems of the p ...

Epiphyllum
''Epiphyllum'' (; "upon the leaf" in Greek) is a genus of epiphytic plants in the cactus family (Cactaceae), native to Central America and South America. Common names for these species include climbing cacti, orchid cacti and leaf cacti, though the latter also refers to the genus ''Pereskia''. Description The stems are broad and flat, 1–5 cm broad, 3–5 mm thick, usually with lobed edges. The flowers are large, 8–16 cm diameter, white through red, with numerous petals. Flowers bloom only at night, and wilt at dawn. The fruit is edible, very similar to the pitaya fruit from the closely related genus ''Hylocereus'', though not so large, being only 3–4 cm long. The broad-leaved epiphyllum (''Epiphyllum oxypetalum'') is particularly well-known. It bears large, strongly fragrant flowers that each usually open for a single night only. The plants known as epiphyllum hybrids, epiphyllums or just epis, which are widely grown for their flowers, are artificial hyb ...

Selenicereus Undatus
''Selenicereus undatus'', the white-fleshed pitahaya, is a species of the genus '' Selenicereus'' (formerly ''Hylocereus'') in the family Cactaceae and is the most cultivated species in the genus. It is used both as an ornamental vine and as a fruit crop - the pitahaya or dragon fruit.นิดดา หงส์วิวัฒน์ และทวีทอง หงส์วิวัฒน์. แก้วมังกร ใน ผลไม้ 111 ชนิด: คุณค่าอาหารและการกิน. กทม. แสงแดด. 2550 หน้า 37 - 39 Like all true cacti, the genus originates in the Americas, but the precise native origin of the species ''S. undatus'' is uncertain and never been resolved; it may be a hybrid.
