Caesalpinieae
The tribe Caesalpinieae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family Fabaceae: subfamily Caesalpinioideae. Genera Caesalpinieae once included many more genera, but modern molecular phylogenetics Molecular phylogenetics () is the branch of phylogeny that analyzes genetic, hereditary molecular differences, predominantly in DNA sequences, to gain information on an organism's evolutionary relationships. From these analyses, it is possible to ... indicated that these should be transferred to other clades. Caesalpinieae currently comprises the following genera: *''Arquita'' E. Gagnon, G. P. Lewis & C. E. Hughes 2015 *''Balsamocarpon'' Clos 1846 *''Biancaea'' (Tod. 1860) E. Gagnon & G. P. Lewis 2016 *''Caesalpinia'' (L. 1753) E. Gagnon & G. P. Lewis 2016 *''Cenostigma'' (Tul. 1843) E. Gagnon & G.

Caesalpinioideae
Caesalpinioideae is a botanical name at the rank of subfamily, placed in the large family Fabaceae or Leguminosae. Its name is formed from the generic name ''Caesalpinia''. It is known also as the peacock flower subfamily. The Caesalpinioideae are mainly trees distributed in the moist tropics, but include such temperate species as the honeylocust (''Gleditsia triacanthos'') and Kentucky coffeetree (''Gymnocladus dioicus''). It has the following clade-based definition: The most inclusive crown clade containing ''Arcoa gonavensis'' Urb. and ''Mimosa pudica'' L., but not '' Bobgunnia fistuloides'' (Harms) J. H. Kirkbr. & Wiersema, ''Duparquetia orchidacea'' Baill., or '' Poeppigia procera'' C.Presl In some classifications, for example the Cronquist system, the group is recognized at the rank of family, Caesalpiniaceae. Characteristics * Specialised extrafloral nectaries often present on the petiole and / or on the primary and secondary rachises, usually between pinnae or lea ...

Mezoneuron
''Mezoneuron'' is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It belongs to the subfamily Caesalpinioideae and the tribe Caesalpinieae. Characteristics and distribution This genus consists of lianas, often with the characteristic 'cat's claw' spines on their stems. Pods are one or more seeded, with a longitudinal (often narrow) wing along the upper suture and a wing 2 mm or more wide, which may be papery, coriaceous or woody. They may be found in Africa, Madagascar and SE Asia across the Malay Peninsula and Archipelago to New Guinea, New Caledonia and Australia, one species endemic to Hawaii.

Hultholia
''Hultholia mimosoides'' is a liana species and the sole species in the genus ''Hultholia''. It was formerly placed in the genus ''Caesalpinia'' but phylogenetic studies identified the group to be polyphyletic, leading the placement of ''Caesalpinia mimosoides'' in a new genus, ''Hultholia'' in the tribe Caesalpinieae. Its distribution includes: Bangladesh, Yunnan in China, India, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam. This species is distinct and can be separated from ''Caesalpinia'' by the glandular spots covering the stem, calyx, and fruits. The pods are falcate and inflated. The needle-like trichomes on the stem are different from the prickles on stems of species in ''Mezoneuron'' and other genera previously placed in ''Caesalpinia''. The genus name commemorates the Cambodian taxonomist Salvamony Hul Thol. Gallic acid can be extracted from the plant. It is a food plant for the caterpillars of ''Eurema blanda ''Eurema blanda'', the three-spot grass yellow, is a small butte ...

Paubrasilia
''Paubrasilia echinata'' is a species of flowering plant in the legume family, Fabaceae, that is endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Brazil. It is a Brazilian timber tree commonly known as Pernambuco wood or brazilwood ( pt, pau-de-pernambuco, ; Tupi: ) and is the national tree of Brazil. This plant has a dense, orange-red heartwood that takes a high shine, and it is the premier wood used for making bows for stringed instruments. The wood also yields a historically important red dye called brazilin, which oxidizes to brazilein. The name ''pau-brasil'' was applied to certain species of the genus ''Caesalpinia'' in the medieval period, and was given its original scientific name ''Caesalpinia echinata'' in 1785 by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck. More recent taxonomic studies have suggested that it merits recognition as a separate genus, and it was thus renamed ''Paubrasilia echinata'' in 2016. The Latin specific epithet of ''echinata'' refers to hedgehog, from ''echinus'', and desc ...
