Claoxylon
''Claoxylon'' is a flowering plant genus in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae, comprising dioecious subshrubs to small trees. It was first described as a genus in 1824. The genus is distributed in paleotropical areas: Madagascar through South and Southeast Asia, Malesia to Melanesia, Hawaii, and Australia. Half of the species are in Malesia. According to a molecular phylogenetic study by Wurdack, Hoffmann & Chase (2005), ''Claoxylon'' is sister to ''Erythrococca'' (50 species, Africa), and together they form the top of a Hennigian comb-like phylogeny.Forster, P.I. (2007). A taxonomic revision of ''Claoxylon'' A.Juss. (Euphorbiaceae) in Australia. Austrobaileya 7: 451-472. The genus ''Claoxylon'' is usually easily recognizable because the dried leaves in herbariums of most species are rough (few are smooth). ;Species ;Formerly included moved to other genera ''(Acalypha, Croton, Discoclaoxylon, Erythrococca, Lobanilia, Macaranga, Mallotus, Micrococca, Orfilea ''Orfilea'' i ...
