Conocarpus
''Conocarpus'' is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the family Combretaceae, native to tropical regions of the world. One of the species is a widespread mangrove species, the other is restricted to a small area around the southern Red Sea coasts, where it grows alongside seasonal rivers. They are dense multiple-trunked shrubs or small to medium-sized trees from 1-20 m tall. The generic name is derived from the Greek words κονος (''konos''), meaning "cone," and καρπος (''karpos''), meaning "fruit." == Distribution == ''Conocarpus'' species are native to the silt shores of coasts and islands of Florida, including the Florida keys.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sfrc.ufl.edu/4h/Buttonwood/buttwood.htm )〕 They are also widely distributed on coasts of tropical America from Bermuda and The Bahamas through West Indies including Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands; from Mexico south on the Atlantic coast to Brazil and on the Pacific Coast to Ecuador including the Galapagos Islands, and Peru; and on coasts of west Africa and in Melanesia and Polynesia.
