'''Thymelaeaceae''' is a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plant]]s, with about 700-750 species in 50 genera. The family has a [[cosmopolitan distribution]] with concentrations in tropical [[Africa]], [[Southeast Asia]] and [[Australasia]]. The species include mostly [[tree]]s and [[shrub]]s, with a few [[vine]]s and [[herbaceous]] plants.
Several genera are of economic importance, notably ''[[Ramin|Gonystylus]]'' (Ramin), valued for its hard, white wood, and ''[[Daphne (plant)|Daphne]]'', grown for its sweetly scented [[flower]]s. Many of the species are [[poison]]ous if eaten.
