Guareeae

Kohekohe Dysoxylum spectabile, photographed by Phil Bendle.


Belongs within: Meliaceae.

The Guareeae are a pantropical assemblage of trees recognised as a tribe within the family Meliaceae. Molecular phylogenetic analyses have indicated that the Guareeae as previously recognised are paraphyletic to the tribe Aglaieae (Muellner et al. 2006). A number of species in the clade are used as timber trees such as the rose mahoganies of the genus Dysoxylum and the pink mahoganies of Guarea. Chisocheton is an Indo-Australian genus with large pinnate leaves and narrow, extended flowers with a cylindrical staminal tube and long style (Stevens 1978).
