Range of the sucupiras and angelims (genus Luetzelburgia)
Luetzelburgia (common names include sucupira and angelim) is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes 14 species of trees and shrubs native to Brazil, Bolivia, and Colombia. Typical habitat is seasonally-dry tropical lowland woodland and wooded grassland, and occasionally lowland rain forests.[5] The genus belongs to the subfamily Faboideae. It was traditionally assigned to the tribe Sophoreae, mainly on the basis of flower morphology;[6] recent molecular phylogenetic analyses assignedLuetzelburgia into an informal, monophyletic clade called the "vataireoids".[7][8] Keys for the different species of Luetzelburgia have been published.[1][4][9]
