Agelanthus Fuellebornii
__NOTOC__ ''Agelanthus'' is a genus of Afrotropical plants in family Loranthaceae. They grow in trees, including Acacia and Combretum species, as hemiparasitic shrubs of varying sizes. The host plant is penetrated by a single haustorium, and the stems typically have swollen, flower-producing nodes. The flowers are often closely clustered ( fascicled) with the five petals (pentamerous) fused into a tube (gamopetalous).Flowers of the closely related genus '' Phragmanthera'' are similar in many respects. The flower may have a swollen base and the tubes open along unilateral, V-shaped splits. The filaments remain spirally rolled inward when the flowers open, while the styles are inconspicuous, slender filaments that are somewhat thickened in the middle. Berries range from pink to orange and red in colour, and are around 1 cm in diameter. The genus was first described by Philippe Édouard Léon Van Tieghem in 1895.
