Robinioids
The robinioids are one of the four major clades (along with the genisitoids, dalbergioids and millettioids) in subfamily Faboideae of the plant family Fabaceae (Leguminosae). It is composed of the traditional tribes Loteae, Sesbanieae and Robinieae. It is a large and important clade that is distributed in mostly temperate areas. Species in this clade share a unique determinate root nodule structure. The clade is predicted to have diverged from the other legume lineages 48.3±1.0 million years ago (in the Eocene The Eocene ( ) is a geological epoch (geology), epoch that lasted from about 56 to 33.9 million years ago (Ma). It is the second epoch of the Paleogene Period (geology), Period in the modern Cenozoic Era (geology), Era. The name ''Eocene'' comes ...). History Only two tribes (Loteae and Robinieae) were traditionally included in clade robinioids. Lavin & Schrire later included Sesbanieae into clade robinioids.

Robinia Pseudoacacia
''Robinia pseudoacacia'', commonly known as black locust, is a medium-sized hardwood deciduous tree, belonging to the tribe Robinieae of the legume family Fabaceae. It is native to a few small areas of the United States, but it has been widely planted and naturalisation (biology), naturalized elsewhere in temperate North America, Europe, Southern Africa and Asia and is considered an invasive species in some areas, such as the temperate east coast of Australia where the cultivar "Frisia" (Golden Robinia) was widely planted as a street tree before being classed as a weed. Another common name is false acacia, a literal translation of the specific name (botany), specific name (''pseudo'' [Greek ''ψευδο-''] meaning fake or false and ''Acacia sensu lato, acacia'' referring to the genus of plants with the same name).

Gliricidia
''Gliricidia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae and tribe Robinieae. Its native range is Mexico to Peru, but '' Gliricidia sepium'' has been widely introduced to other tropical zones. The species ''G. sepium'' is a small, deciduous, ornamental tree, cultivated and used for a variety of purposes in tropical regions. The genus name ''Gliricidia'' means "mouse killer" in reference to the traditional use of the toxic seeds and bark of ''G. sepium'' as rodenticide Rodenticides are chemicals made and sold for the purpose of killing rodents. While commonly referred to as "rat poison", rodenticides are also used to kill mice, woodchucks, chipmunks, porcupines, nutria, beavers, and voles. Some rodenticides ...s. The tree is leafless when in flower and bears fruits during April and May in India and countries with same climate.

Robinia
''Robinia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae, tribe Robinieae, native to North America. Commonly known as locusts, they are deciduous trees and shrubs growing tall. The leaves are pinnate with 7–21 oval leaflets. The flowers are white or pink, in usually pendulous racemes. Many species have thorny shoots, and several have sticky hairs on the shoots. The genus is named after the royal French gardeners Jean Robin (botanist), Jean Robin and his son :fr:Vespasien Robin, Vespasien Robin, who introduced the plant to Europe in 1601. The number of species is disputed between different authorities, with as few as four recognised by some authors, while others recognise up to 10 species. Several natural Hybrid (biology), hybrids are also known. Some species of ''Robinia'' are used as food by caterpillars of Lepidoptera, including such moths as the brown-tail (''Euproctis chrysorrhoea''), the buff-tip (''Phalera bucephala''), the engrailed (''Ectropis crepuscularia'' ...
