:''"Schousboea" redirects here. As described by H.C.F. Schumacher and Peter Thonning, this is a synonym of ''Alchornea. ''Combretum'', the bushwillows or combretums, make up the type genus of the family Combretaceae. The genus comprises about 370 species of trees and shrubs, roughly 300 of which are native to tropical and southern Africa, about 5 to Madagascar, some 25 to tropical Asia and approximately 40 to tropical America. The genus is absent from Australia. Though somewhat reminiscent of willows (''Salix'') in their habitus, they are not particularly close relatives of these. ==Ecology== Bushwillow trees often are important plants in their habitat. Savannahs in Africa, in particular those growing on granitic soils, are often dominated by ''Combretum'' and its close relative ''Terminalia''. For example ''C. apiculatum'' is a notable tree in the Angolan mopane woodlands ecoregion in the Kunene River basin in southern Africa.〔C.Michael Hogan. 2012. (''Kunene River''. Topic ed. P.Saundry. Encyclopedia of Earth. National Council for Science and the Environment. Washington DC. ) 〕 Other species of this genus are a major component of Southwestern Amazonian moist forests. This genus contains several species that are pollinated by mammals other than bats, which is quite rare indeed. But most species are more conventionally pollinated by insects or birds. ''Typhlodromus combretum'', a mite of the family Phytoseiidae, was discovered on a bushwillow plant and is named after this genus. Other herbivores that eat ''Combretum'' foliage include the caterpillars of the Brown Awl (''Badamia exclamationis'') which is found on ''C. albidum, C. latifolium'' and ''C. ovalifolium''; those of the Orange-tailed Awl (''Bibasis sena'') are recorded from ''C. extensum'' and ''C. latifolium''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「:''"Schousboea" redirects here.

This genus contains several species that are pollinated by mammals other than bats, which is quite rare indeed. But most species are more conventionally pollinated by insects or birds.''Typhlodromus combretum'', a mite of the family Phytoseiidae, was discovered on a bushwillow plant and is named after this genus. Other herbivores that eat ''Combretum'' foliage include the caterpillars of the Brown Awl (''Badamia exclamationis'') which is found on ''C. albidum, C. latifolium'' and ''C. ovalifolium''; those of the Orange-tailed Awl (''Bibasis sena'') are recorded from ''C. extensum'' and ''C. latifolium''.」の詳細全文を読む ', the bushwillows or combretums, make up the type genus of the family Combretaceae. The genus comprises about 370 species of trees and shrubs, roughly 300 of which are native to tropical and southern Africa, about 5 to Madagascar, some 25 to tropical Asia and approximately 40 to tropical America. The genus is absent from Australia. Though somewhat reminiscent of willows (''Salix'') in their habitus, they are not particularly close relatives of these.==Ecology==Bushwillow trees often are important plants in their habitat. Savannahs in Africa, in particular those growing on granitic soils, are often dominated by ''Combretum'' and its close relative ''Terminalia''. For example ''C. apiculatum'' is a notable tree in the Angolan mopane woodlands ecoregion in the Kunene River basin in southern Africa.C.Michael Hogan. 2012. (''Kunene River''. Topic ed. P.Saundry. Encyclopedia of Earth. National Council for Science and the Environment. Washington DC. ) Other species of this genus are a major component of Southwestern Amazonian moist forests.
