Leaves alternate or in a few species opposite, broad, simple, palmately nerved: fls. dioecious, small, in spikes or panicles; calyx valvate or imbricate; no petals, disk or rudiment of ovary in the staminate fls.; stamens numerous, anther-cells oblong; the 3 styles almost free at base, elongated; ovules 1 in each cell: caps, separating into 2-3 parts. About 80-90 species in the Old World tropics. Related to Mercurialis and Macaranga.
