Satyria is a genus of the heather family(Ericaceae). The distribution area is in Latin America and extends from southern Mexico to Bolivia .
description
The species of the genus Satyria are epiphytic or ground-growing shrubs. The inflorescences are traubig to tufted and often astblütig . The free part of the calyx above the ovary is widened to spread out and rarely longer than the calyx tube. There are rarely three or four usually five calyx lobes formed. The corolla is from 0.7, but mostly about 1 centimeter long, cylindrical to slightly widened or rarely rounded-jug-shaped. It is rarely lobed up to a third of the length. The stamens reach a length of up to a third of the corolla, the stamens are short and fused, the anthers are two-dimensional. The counters are more or less woody and finely warty to smooth. The tubules attached to the anthers are about as long as or longer than the counters. Tubules on the longer anthers are often widened at the end and show curved and colorful tips with pores located in latrors . Tubules on the shorter anthers usually do not expand and show introrse pores. The fruits are dark black-blue.
The basic chromosome number is n = 24.
Distribution and ecology
The natural distribution area of the genus extends from southern Mexico to Bolivia and east to French Guiana . The species grow in low-lying rainforests up to the cloud forest .
