Hymenaea (genus) (Fabaceae (family), Fabales (order), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Genus containing 14 living species and several extinct species of trees, most native to tropical America, but at least one native to the east coast of Africa. The trees are used for edible fruits, leaves to make tea, a dense wood used in making ships and furniture, thick bark to make canoes, seeds containing large amounts of a highly viscous polysaccharide used for food, paper, cosmetic and pharmaceutical, and hard resins used for varnish. Resin is gathered from living trees and as found in the ground, deposited by lost specimens of living species or extinct species.

| Dutch ..... Genus van 14 levende en een aantal uitgestorven boomsoorten, waarvan de meeste inheems zijn in het tropische deel van Amerika en ten minste één soort inheems is aan de oostkust van Afrika. De bomen zijn bronnen van eetbare vruchten, theebladeren, massief hout voor de productie van schepen en meubels, dikke schors voor het maken van kano's, zaden met zeer stroperige polysaccharides die worden gebruikt voor voedsel, papier, cosmetica en farmaceutische middelen, en harde harsen voor vernis. Hars wordt gewonnen uit levende bomen en gevonden op de grond, afkomstig van specimens van levende of uitgestorven soorten. |
