Abstract


This is a small family confined to the tropics consisting of shrubs and trees with leathery ever- green exstipulate alternate leaves. The flowers are regular and usually hermaphrodite with sepals and petals in fives (or 4 to 7 rarely). The stamens are indefinite free or connate at the base. The ovary is superior, 3 to 5 or many celled with as many styles and one or more ovules in each cell. Camelliaceae and Theaceae are synonymous terms used for this family.
