description

Habit and leaves

The Hanguana species grow as perennial herbaceous plants . They have a grass-like appearance and rhizomes as storage organs . There are mucus ducts.

The alternate leaves are usually arranged directly above the ground, that is, basal, rosette-like or two rows or spirals on the stem . The leaves are divided into a petiole and a leaf blade. The simple leaf blade has a midrib, many parallel lateral nerves and prominent, interlinking lateral nerves of the 2nd order. The leaf margin is smooth.

Inflorescences and flowers

They are dioecious separate sexes ( monoecious ). The small, sessile flowers are formed in branched, panicle inflorescences .

The sessile flowers are unisexual, threefold and radially symmetrical . There are two bract circles per flower and the six bracts are designed differently or the same; they are fused like a tube. In the male flowers there are two circles with three free, fertile stamens each . The widened stamens are only slightly fused at their base. The pollen grains have no aperture. In the female flowers are six nektarsekretierende Staminodien available and three carpels are a top permanent ovary grown with only one ovule per ovary chamber. A stylus is not recognizable. The broad scar is three-lobed.

Fruits and seeds

There are drupes formed with a (up to three) seeds. The seeds are bowl-shaped. The embryo is small.

Ingredients and chromosome numbers

Proanthocyanidins are important ingredients : cyanidin and delphinidin . There are silicates stored. Ferulic acid is present in the cell walls . The basic chromosome numbers are roughly n = 24, 36, 45.

Systematics and distribution

One species ( Hanguana anthelminthica ) is distributed from Sri Lanka across Southeast Asia to Palau and as far as northern Australia . About 15 species occur only on the Malay Peninsula or Borneo . One species ( Hanguana kassintu ) occurs only in Java .

The genus Hanguana was first published in 1827 by Carl Ludwig Blume in Enumeratio Plantarum Javae et insularum adjacentium minus cognitarum ... p. 15. Synonyms for Hanguana Blume are: Veratronia Miq. , Susum flower .

The first publication of the surname Hanguanaceae was in December 1965 by Herbert Kenneth Airy Shaw in Kew Bulletin , 18, 260. Previously, this genus was placed in the families of the Flagellariaceae or Asteliaceae and it was assumed that it was close to the Zingiberales . Molecular genetic studies showed that Hanguanaceae is a sister group of the Commelinaceae within the order of the Commelinales (Chase et al. 2005).

In the genus Hanguana flower there are only one to six and since 2017 about 19 species:
