Summary

Axinaea is a genus of flowering plants in the family Melastomataceae. As of 2012, there are at least 42 species. They are small trees and shrubs. They are native to the Americas; almost all are found in the Andes. Plants of this genus are pollinated when birds, several species of fruit-eating tanagers, consume specialized appendages on the stamens. As they grasp the nutritious appendages, a cloud of pollen is released. This has been called "puff pollination". Species include: Axinaea affinis Cogn. Axinaea alata E.Cotton Axinaea campii E.Cotton Axinaea carolina-telleziae Bussmann & Paniagua Axinaea colombiana Lozano & Alvear Axinaea confusa E.Cotton Axinaea costaricensis Cogn. Axinaea crassinoda Triana Axinaea dentata E.Cotton Axinaea dependens Ruiz & Pav. Axinaea disrupta E.Cotton Axinaea fallax Gleason ex Cuatrec. ......read more on Wikipedia.
