Sarcotheca Diversifolia
''Sarcotheca diversifolia'', also known as pupoi or belimbing bulat in Malay and more locally as tabarus, piang or belimbing hutan, is a species of flowering plant, a fruit tree in the wood sorrel family, that is native to Southeast Asia. Description The species grows as a tree to 30 m in height, with a fluted bole of up to 5 m, sometimes with buttresses up to 2 m. The oval leaves are 3–10 cm long by 1–5 cm wide. The inflorescences comprise clusters of panicles of pink and purple flowers in the leaf axils. The oval berries are 2–3 cm by 1.5–2 cm in diameter, green to yellowish-green ripening yellow, with the seeds contained in the edible, juicy, fleshy, translucent to white mesocarp. The species is occasionally cultivated and the fruits eaten raw or cooked with meat and vegetables. Distribution and habitat The species is found in Borneo and Sumatra. It occurs in mixed lowland and hill dipterocarp Dipterocarpaceae is a family of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Oxalidaceae
The Oxalidaceae, or wood sorrel family, are a small family of five genera of herbaceous plants, shrubs and small trees, with the great majority of the 570 species in the genus ''Oxalis'' (wood sorrels). Members of this family typically have divided leaves A leaf ( : leaves) is any of the principal appendages of a vascular plant stem, usually borne laterally aboveground and specialized for photosynthesis. Leaves are collectively called foliage, as in "autumn foliage", while the leaves, st ..., the leaflets showing "sleep movements", spreading open in light and closing in darkness. The genus ''Averrhoa'' of which starfruit is a member, is usually included in this family (e.g. APG IV, 2016), but some botanists place it in a separate family Averrhoaceae.

Carl Ludwig Blume
Charles Ludwig de Blume or Karl Ludwig von Blume (9 June 1796, Braunschweig – 3 February 1862, Leiden) was a German- Dutch botanist. He was born at Braunschweig in Germany, but studied at Leiden University and spent his professional life working in the Dutch East Indies and in the Netherlands, where he was Director of the Rijksherbarium (state herbarium) at Leiden. His name is sometimes given in the Dutch language form Karel Lodewijk Blume, but the original German spelling is the one most widely used in botanical texts: even then there is confusion, as he is sometimes referred to as K.L. Blume (from Karl). He carried out extensive studies of the flora of southern Asia, particularly in Java, then a colony of the Netherlands. From 1823 to 1826 Blume was Deputy Director of Agriculture at the botanic garden in Bogor (Buitenzorg) in Java. In 1827 he became correspondent of the Royal Institute of the Netherlands. In 1855, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Plant
Plants are predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae. Historically, the plant kingdom encompassed all living things that were not animals, and included algae and fungi; however, all current definitions of Plantae exclude the fungi and some algae, as well as the prokaryotes (the archaea and bacteria). By one definition, plants form the clade Viridiplantae (Latin name for "green plants") which is sister of the Glaucophyta, and consists of the green algae and Embryophyta (land plants). The latter includes the flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms, ferns and their allies, hornworts, liverworts, and mosses. Most plants are multicellular organisms. Green plants obtain most of their energy from sunlight via photosynthesis by primary chloroplasts that are derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria. Their chloroplasts contain chlorophylls a and b, which gives them their green color. Some plants are parasitic or mycotrophic and hav ...

Jules Émile Planchon
Jules Émile Planchon (21 March 1823 – 1 April 1888) was a French botanist born in Ganges, Hérault. Biography After receiving his Doctorate of Science at the University of Montpellier in 1844, he worked for a while at the Royal Botanical Gardens in London, and for a few years was a teacher in Nancy and Ghent. In 1853 he became head of the department of botanical sciences at the University of Montpellier, where he remained for the remainder of his career. Planchon was highly regarded in scientific circles, and made a number of contributions in his classification of botanical species and varieties. He is credited with publishing over 2000 botanical names, including ''Actinidia chinensis'', better known as the "golden kiwifruit". Planchon is remembered for his work in saving French grape vineyards from '' Phylloxera vastatrix'', a microscopic, yellow aphid-like pest that was an exotic species from the United States. He performed this task with assistance from French botanist ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Oxalidales Genera
Oxalidales is an order of flowering plants, included within the rosid subgroup of eudicots. Compound leaves are common in Oxalidales and the majority of the species in this order have five or six sepals and petals. The following families are typically placed here:Stephens, P.F. (2001 onwards). Angiosperm Phylogeny Website. Version 9, June 2008. http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Research/APweb/ * Family Brunelliaceae * Family Cephalotaceae (''Cephalotus follicularis'') * Family Connaraceae * Family Cunoniaceae * Family Elaeocarpaceae * Family Huaceae * Family Oxalidaceae (wood sorrel family) The family Cephalotaceae contains a single species, a pitcher plant found in Southwest Australia. Under the Cronquist system, most of the above families were placed in the Rosales. The Oxalidaceae were placed in the Geraniales, and the Elaeocarpaceae split between the Malvales and Polygalales, in the latter case being treated as the Tremandraceae.
