Chionographis Chinensis
''Chionographis'' is a genus of plants in the Melanthiaceae first described as a genus in 1867. This genus is native to China, Japan, and Korea. ''Chionographis'' species are perennial flowering plants that grow from rhizomes. They produce a basal rosette of evergreen leaves, from the center of which emerges a flowering scape. The scape produces a spike of many small white flowers. The flowers are zygomorphic in shape, and when perfect have six tepals, one pistil, and six stamens. However, not all individuals have perfect flowers. Many populations feature gynodioecy, and more rarely, androdioecy. They are native to China, Japan, and Korea, and typically grow in moist places in the temperate forests' understory. ; species * '' Chionographis chinensis'' K.Krause - Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan * '' Chionographis hisauchiana'' (Okuyama) N.Tanaka - Japan * '' Chionographis japonica'' (Willd.)

Melanthiaceae
Melanthiaceae, also called the bunchflower family, is a family (biology), family of flowering plant, flowering herbaceous perennial plants native to the Northern Hemisphere. Along with many other lilioid monocots, early authors considered members of this family to belong to the family Liliaceae, in part because both their sepals and petals closely resemble each other and are often large and showy like those of Lilium, lilies, while some more recent taxonomists have placed them in a family Trilliaceae. The most authoritative modern treatment, however, the APG III system of 2009 (unchanged from the 2003 APG II system and the 1998 APG system), places the family in the order Liliales, in the clade monocots. Circumscription (taxonomy), Circumscribed in this way, the family includes up to 17 genera. Familiar members of the family include the genera ''Paris (plant), Paris'' and ''Trillium''. Genera and species , the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families accepted 17 genera in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
