Dicypellium caryophyllatum |
Dicypellium is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the family Lauraceae, native to tropical South America, in Amazon Basin.
They are trees, with the flowers not involucrated, ovary superior, nine or fewer fertile stamens, anthers four-locular and nine tepals, and the fruit with cupules (see illustration).
Dicypellium caryophyllatum, known as "pau-cravo" in Brazil, has bark that smells like cloves.
