Heritiera (Charles Louis L'Heritier de Brutclle, 174&-1800, French botanist). Sterculiaceae. About 4 species of trees on the tropical seacoasts of the Old World, little known horticulturally. Lvs. thick, simple, entire, silvery or shining beneath: fls. small, unisexual, in axillary panicles; calyx 4-6-toothed or -cleft; petals none; stamens united into a column, bearing 5 anthers at top; ovaries mostly 5, nearly free, bearing short style and 5 stigmas: carpels woody and indehiscent when ripe, cornered, keeled or winged. Called "looking- glass tree." from the shining under-surface of the lvs. H. littoralis, Dry. Moderate-sized tree: lvs. oblong, acute, 3-8 in. long: staminate fls. small, in axillary branched clusters, with an urn-shaped downy calyx; pistillate fls. larger with bell-shaped calyx: carpels or follicles 1-4 in. long, smooth or tubercled. Afr., Asia, Pacific islands. L. H. B.
