Crotalarieae
Crotalarieae is a tribe of flowering plants belonging to the family Fabaceae. It includes rooibos ''(Aspalathus linearis)'', harvested for sale as a tisane. Description The Crotalarieae arose 31.2 ± 3.4 million years ago (in the Oligocene). The members of this tribe consistently form a monophyletic clade in molecular phylogenetic analyses. The tribe does not currently have a node-based definition and no morphological synapomorphies have been identified. Several genera in the tribe produce quinolizidine alkaloids or macrocyclic pyrrolizidine alkaloids. Genera Crotalarieae comprises the following genera: * ''Aspalathus'' L. * ''Bolusia'' Benth. * ''Calobota'' Eckl. & Zeyh. * ''Crotalaria'' L. * ''Euchlora'' Eckl. & Zeyh. * ''Ezoloba'' B.-E. van Wyk & Boatwr. * ''Lebeckia'' Thunb. * ''Leobordea'' Del. * ''Listia'' E. Mey. * ''Lotononis'' (DC.) Eckl. & Zeyh. * ''Pearsonia'' Dummer * ''Rafnia'' Thunb. * ''Robynsiophyton ''Robynsiophyton vanderystii'' is a spec ...

Erik Viborg
Erik Nissen Viborg (5 April 1759 – 25 September 1822) was a Danish veterinarian and botanist. Viborg studied veterinary science by P.C. Abildgaard at the Veterinary School in Copenhagen and soon became the professor’s assistant (in 1783). From 1784 to 1787, Viborg travelled in Europe. After his return, he won a prize from the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters for his thesis about the ‘sand plants’ (mainly Marram grass) and their use as sand-binders in protection of agricultural lands from aeolian sand.Viborg, E. (1788) Efterretning om Sandvexterne og deres Anvendelse til at dæmpe Sandflugten paa Vesterkanten af Jylland. København. (Subsequent German translation: Beschreibung der Sandgewächse und ihrer Anwendung zur Hemmung des Flugsandes auf der Küste von Jütland etc. Viborg, Erich Aus dem Dänischen von J. Petersen. Kopenhagen, 1789) He was then appointed teacher (with the title of professor) at the Veterinary School (1787–1790). In 1796, the king sent ...

Cape Provinces
The Cape Provinces of South Africa is a biogeographical area used in the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions (WGSRPD). It is part of the WGSRPD region 27 Southern Africa. The area has the code "CPP". It includes the South African provinces of the Eastern Cape, the Northern Cape and the Western Cape, together making up most of the former Cape Province. The area includes the Cape Floristic Region, the smallest of the six recognised floral kingdoms of the world, an area of extraordinarily high diversity and endemism, home to more than 9,000 vascular plant species, of which 69 percent are endemic.
