The genus has undergone many modifications in its taxonomic treatment: initially it was a genus with a large number of species, including those with succulent leaflets and schizocarp fruit. Subsequently these species were joined with another present in Inner Mongolia (<em>Tetraena mongolica<\/em>) in the genus <em>Tetraena<\/em> (Beier <em>et al<\/em>., 2003). Currently, a more synthetic treatment is opted for (Christenhusz <em>et al<\/em>. 2018), which merges both genres.<\/p>\n<p>According to Beier <em>et al. <\/em>(2003), the fruits of species formerly included in <em>Tetraena<\/em> are schizocarps, not capsules. Although the term \u201ccapsule\u201d is used throughout the literature consulted, except in <em>Flora Iberica<\/em>, the terminology proposed by Beier <em>et al. <\/em>(2003) is followed here. To refer to the appendages of the staminal filament, the term \u201cscale\u201d is used.<\/p>\n<p>The type species of the genus is<strong> Z. fabago<\/strong> L. a herbaceous perennial plant with a somewhat lignified base, it can reach up to 1(1.5) m in height, leaves bifoliolate, flat, not fleshy, ellipsoid leaflets and fruits an elongated capsule (3-4 cm), dehiscent, with 4-5 flattened seeds; it grows in nitrified and even anthropic environments (walls, ruins, etc.); it is possibly native to the eastern Mediterranean region; in North Africa it was cited in Egypt, where it seems to have become extict [Red List of the Vascular Plants of Egypt (<em>Flora Aegyptiaca <\/em>Vol 1, 2000)], however since the past few centuries, it has been widely distributed almost anywhere in the world, possibly due to human activity. Currently, it has not been assessed at a global level on the <em>IUCN Red List of Threatened Species<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-11657","genus","type-genus","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Zygophyllum L. - North Africa Trees<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Zygophyllum L. - North Africa Trees\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A genus with about 117 species typical of the tropical and arid zones of the western half of the Old World, reaching adjacent areas of Mediterranean and\/or very continental climates (Central Asia) and with some more presence in the Neotropical region.
