Dendrocnide

''Dendrocnide'' is a genus of 37 species of shrubs to large trees in the nettle family Urticaceae. They have a wide distribution across Southeast Asia, Australia and the Pacific Islands.〔(ABRS Flora of Australia Online Search Results )〕
They are colloquially known as stinging trees, stinging nettles or nettle trees. One Australian species, ''Dendrocnide excelsa'' (giant stinging tree), can grow to over 40 metres in height, but the dangerous ''Dendrocnide moroides'' (gympie-gympie) is only shrub-size.
In Vanuatu, where ''Dendrocnide'' species are known by the Bislama name ''nanggalat''〔T. Crowley, A New Bislama Dictionary, p. 335〕 or under commonly used alternative spelling ''nangalat'',〔http://www.dailypost.vu/content/tourist-claims-compensation-nangalat-leaf-burns Vanuatu Daily Post〕 they have various customary uses, including the whipping of those found guilty of breaking taboos. The pain caused by merely touching the ''nanggalat'' is no worse than the sting of a common European nettle, but far more persistent, returning whenever the affected area of skin is touched by water or rubbed, an effect that may last for days.
''Dendrocnide'' species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species, including ''Aenetus scotti''.
