		+	Tapirira (from a native name in Guiana). Also spelled Tapiria. Anacardiaceae. A name of disputed application. The plant likely to interest horticulturists in this relationship is Cyrtocarpa procera, from Mex., described on p. 945, Vol. II. Of Tapirira itself, distinguished by 4-5 styles, those in the pistillate fls. short, none is probably regularly in cult. As formerly defined, the species are S. American, with a few in Afr. and Asia, 8 or 10 in number. Later authors restrict the genus to S. Amer., mostly to Brazil. Under any definition, the genus is probably adapted to cult. only on our southernmost borders.
