  1. Crinodendron brasiliense Template:Au
  2. Crinodendron hookerianum Template:Au
  3. Crinodendron patagua Template:Au
  4. Crinodendron tucumanum Template:Au

Etymology

The generic name Crinodendron is composed of two Greek words: krinon, meaning lily,[6][9] in reference to the fragrant, white, lily-like flowers of Crinodendron patagua,[6] and dendron, meaning tree.[9]

Evolution

This genus is most closely related to the Australian Peripentadenia. They appear to descend from a common ancestor that dispersed across the Antarctic land bridge during the Late Cretaceous.[10]

Distribution

It is native to Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, and has been introduced to the Juan Fernández Islands.[4]

Ecology

Pollination

Crinodendron patagua is insect pollinated, Crinodendron hookerianum is hummingbird pollinated,[11][12] and Crinodendron tucumanum is insect pollinated.[12]

Horticulture

In cultivation in temperate areas they require a sheltered location.[13]
