Morphological Summary
Genus of tropical trees in the family Fabaceae (subfamily Caesalpinioideae) distributed mainly in Madagascar and East Africa. The genus includes some of the most spectacular flowers in the plant world: the type species, D. regia (flamboyant or flame tree), is one of the most impressively flowering trees in the world. The remaining species are endemic to Madagascar with restricted distributions, several critically endangered due to Malagasy deforestation. All share a characteristic umbrella-shaped canopy architecture and showy-petalled flowers.
Distribution Madagascar (most endemic), East Africa, India; D. regia cultivated throughout the tropics
Conservation Several Malagasy species critically endangered or endangered
