Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 包含3個物種的落葉喬木和灌木屬,間斷分佈於東亞(中國檫樹與台灣檫樹)、以及東北美(北美檫樹)之間,還有一個已滅絕的物種。為人所知的商業價值在於其芳香的油脂,可用於香水、沙士和茶飲中。質軟輕盈的木頭可作為板材,其木材可萃取出一種玫瑰棕色到灰色的不易褪色織品染料。 
Dutch ..... Genus van drie soorten bladverliezende bomen en struiken. Twee soorten komen voor in Azië (S. tzumu en S. randaiense) en één in het oosten van Noord-Amerika (S. albidum). Er is ook één uitgestorven soort. Ze zijn commercieel interessant vanwege hun geurige olie, die men gebruikt in parfum, limonade en thee. Het zachte, lichte hout wordt gebruikt als timmerhout. Uit het hout wint men een kleurstof voor textiel die rozebruin tot grijs is en een goede kleurvastheid heeft.
