American shrubs or small trees closely related to Schinus: lvs. alternate, simple or odd-pinnate: fls. small, greenish or whitish, in panicles; petals 5, valvate, stamens 10; disk annular in the staminate fls., cup-shaped and 10-lobed in the pistillate fls.; ovary superior, 1-celled with a basal, sessile ovule: fr. a dry subglobose drupe with a hard bony stone. The following species is occasionally cult, in S. Calif. L. molleoides, Engler (L. Aroeirinha, March.). Shrub, to 12 ft., glabrous: lvs. odd-pinnate; 1fts. 5, rarely 3, lanceolate, acute, l ½ -3 in. long; petiole 1- 1 ½in. long, like the rachis narrow-winged: panicles 2-3 in. long: fr. globose, 1/5 in' across, whitish, lustrous. S. Brazil, Argentina. Flor. Brasil. 12, 2:83. L. caustica, Miers, from Chile, has short-petioled simple, oval to ovate-oblong lvs. and pubescent panicles; it is said to be very poisonous. L. Gilliesii, Griseb. Tall shrub, 6-10 ft., the branches whitish gray, more or less dichotomous: lvs. 3-foliolate or 5-foliolate; lfts. lanceolate, the lower ones sessile, the upper narrowed below: fls. small, yellowish white, in few-fld. clusters: fr. a dry drupe.
