Tristerix
''Tristerix'' is a genus of mistletoe in the family Loranthaceae, native to the Andes, ranging from Colombia and Ecuador to Chile and Argentina. They are woody perennials usually occurring as aerial parasites, are pollinated by hummingbirds and flowerpiercers, with seed-dispersal generally by birds but occasionally by mammals (''Dromiciops''). The genus is distinguished from other New World Loranthaceae by its simple, terminal, racemose inflorescences, together with its of 4- or 5-merous flowers, versatile anthers, and the presence of endosperm. Further differences include fused cotyledons and the absence oepicorticalroots. Phylogeny ''Tristerix'' was first described in 1830 by Martius, who published three species: ''T. viridiflorus'' (now ''Macrosolen viridiflorus'', ''T. tetrandus'' (now '' T. corymbosus'') and ''T. reinwardtianus'' (now '' Macrosolen avenis''). In 1868, Eichler placed ''Loranthus aphyllus'' and ''L. tetrandrus'' in the genus '' Phrygillanthus''. Howe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tristerix Aphyllus
''Tristerix aphyllus'' is a holoparasitic plant species of the genus ''Tristerix'' in the family Loranthaceae. It is endemic to Chile. '' T. aphyllus'' is sometimes called the "cactus mistletoe." It should not be confused with the mistletoe cactus, which is an epiphytic cactus, and not a mistletoe. Description The mistletoe, ''Tristerix aphyllus'', parasitizes two species of cactus, ''Echinopsis chiloensis'' and ''Eulychnia acida'', and in its adult form shows only its flowers and its fruits, bursting forth spectacularly from the columnar cacti which are its hosts. Mauseth (2011) discusses the morphological/anatomical effects of '' T. aphyllus'' on the cactus ''Echinopsis chiloensis''. Taxonomy '' T. aphyllus'' was first described by John Miers in 1830 as ''Loranthus aphyllus'' but with the publication in 1973 of an article by Barlow & Wiens, became ''Tristerix aphyllus'' (author, Tieghem (Tiegh.)).
