Illicium
''Illicium'' is a genus of flowering plants treated as part of the family Schisandraceae,〔(''Illicium''. ) Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS).〕 or alternately as the sole genus of the Illiciaceae.〔Watson, L. and M. J. Dallwitz. 1992 onwards. (Illiciaceae Van Tiegh. ) The Families of Flowering Plants. Version: 19 August 2013.〕 It has a disjunct distribution, with most species native to eastern Asia and several in parts of North America, including the southeastern United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean.〔Oh, I. C., et al. (2003). (Evolution of ''Illicium'' (Illiciaceae): mapping morphological characters on the molecular tree. ) ''Plant Systematics and Evolution'' 240(1-4), 175-209.〕 General common names include star anise〔(''Illicium''. ) Flora of North America.〕 and anisetree.〔 The genus name comes from the Latin ''illicere'' ("to allure").〔 ==Description== ''Illicium'' species are evergreen shrubs and small trees. The leaves are alternately arranged and borne on petioles. The blades are glandular and fragrant. The flowers are solitary. They have few to many tepals in two or three rows, the inner ones like petals and the outer ones often smaller and more like bracts. A few to many stamens and pistils are at the center. The fruit is an aggregate of follicles arranged in a star-shaped whorl. One seed is in each follicle, released when the follicle dehisces. The seed has a thick, oily endosperm.〔(Illiciaceae. ) Flora of North America.〕
