Description
Family Sapindaceae
Trees
or shrubs
(or woody vines
with tendrils
in Cardiospermum and allied genera), rarely herbaceous climbers
. Indumentum usually of simple
hairs
, often glandular
on young parts, buds, and inflorescences. Leaves alternate, usually estipulate; leaf blade
pinnate or digitate, rarely simple; leaflets
alternate to opposite, entire or dentate
to serrate. Inflorescence a terminal
or axillary
thyrse
; bracts and bracteoles small. Flowers unisexual
, rarely polygamous or bisexual
, actinomorphic
or zygomorphic, usually small. Sepals 4 or 5(or 6), equal or unequal, free
or connate
at base
, imbricate or valvate
. Petals 4 or 5(or 6), sometimes absent, free, imbricate, usually clawed, often with scales
or hair-tufted basal appendages
. Disk conspicuous
, fleshy
, complete
or interrupted
, lobed
or annular
, rarely absent. Stamens 5-10(-74), usually 8, rarely numerous
, variously inserted
but usually within disk, often exserted in male flowers; filaments
free, rarely connate; anthers
dorsifixed
, longitudinally dehiscent
, introrse
; staminodes sometimes present in carpellate
flowers, but filaments shorter and anthers with a thick wall, indehiscent. Ovary superior, (1-) 3(or 4) -loculed; ovules 1 or 2(or several) per locule, placentation axile
, rarely parietal
, anatropous
, campylotropous, or amphitropous
; style usually apical (terminal), semigynobasic in Allophylus [gynobasic
in Deinbollia Schumacher & Thonning]; stigma entire or 2 or 3(or 4) -lobed, usually rudimentary
in male flowers. Fruit a loculicidal capsule, berry, or drupe, or consisting of 2 or 3 samaras, often 1-seeded and 1-loculed by abortion
. Seeds 1(or 2 or more) per locule; testa black or brown, hard, often with a conspicuous fleshy aril or sarcotesta
; embryo curved
, plicate
, or twisted, oily and starchy; endosperm usually absent. 2n = 20-36.
One hundred
thirty-five genera and ca.
1500 species: widely distributed in tropical
and subtropical
regions, especially well represented in tropical SE Asia; 21 genera (one endemic) and 52 species (16 endemic, one introduced
) in China.
There is some variation
in the circumscription of Sapindaceae in taxonomic
treatments, particularly with regard to the inclusion of genera from the closely related, predominately temperate
families Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae. Several studies including Müller and Leenhouts (in Ferguson & Müller, Evolutionary Significance Exine: 407-445. 1976), and more recently those based on molecular data (Stevens, Angiosperm Phylogeny Website, 2001 onward; Harrington et al.
, Syst. Bot. 30: 366-382. 2005), supported the recognition of a broadly defined Sapindaceae incorporating Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae. Harrington et al. (loc. cit.
) proposed four subfamilies or clades, comprising Sapindoideae (including
Koelreuteria and Ungnadia Endlicher), Dodonaeoideae, Hippocastanoideae (including taxa previously referred to Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae, plus Handeliodendron), and a monotypic "Xanthoceratoideae". Within Hippocastanoideae, Acer Linnaeus and Dipteronia Oliver comprise a monophyletic group and are treated in this Flora
as Aceraceae. Similarly, Aesculus Linnaeus, Billia Peyritsch, and the Chinese endemic Handeliodendron Rehder form a monophyletic group and are treated here as Hippocastanaceae. There is some support
for "Xanthoceratoideae" being the first lineage
to diverge within the broadly defined Sapindaceae assemblage; consequently, Xanthoceras is treated separately from genera in Sapindoideae and Dodonaeoideae in the following account of Sapindaceae s.s. The sequence of genera reflects Müller and Leenhouts (loc. cit.) as modified by recent analyses based on molecular and morphological data, rather than following the order
developed by Radlkofer (Sitzungsber. Math.-Phys. Cl. Königl. Bayer. Akad. Wiss. München 20: 105-379. 1890; and in Engler, Pflanzenreich 98a-h(IV
. 165) : 1-1539. 1931-1934), which was previously followed in FRPS.
The main economic uses of this family
include (1) timber: Amesiodendron chinense, Dimocarpus longan, D. confinis, Litchi chinensis, Pavieasia kwangsiensis, and Pometia pinnata; (2) fruit: Dimocarpus longan, Litchi chinensis, and Nephelium lappaceum; (3) medicine: Dimocarpus longan (arillode
), Litchi chinensis (seeds), and Sapindus saponaria (roots
) ; (4) oil
: Amesiodendron chinense, Delavaya toxocarpa, and Xanthoceras sorbifolium. Saponins occur widely in the family, commonly used as a fish poison and for their detergent properties.[1]
Genus Cardiospermum
Herbaceous or woody climbers
, rarely shrubs
. Leaves usually biternate
or bitrilobate; stipules small, deciduous; leaflets
pinnately lobed
or dentate
, usually with pellucid
glands
. Panicles axillary
; peduncles rather long, first pair of branches forming tendrils
or spines; bracts and bracteoles subulate

; scales
of abaxial
petals with broadly winged
appendage
, scales of adaxial
petals simple
. Disk lobed into 2 large glandular
lobes
at base of petals. Stamens (male flowers) 8, slightly longer
than petals. Ovary (female flowers) ellipsoid
, trigonous

at middle
of middle axis; style short; stigma 3-lobed. Capsules inflated
