Planchonella

Planchonella is a genus of flowering trees in the gutta-percha family, Sapotaceae. Named in honour of Jules Émile Planchon, it contains around 100 mainly tropical species, two of which occur in South America and about 18 in Australasia. It was described by Jean Baptiste Louis Pierre.[1] The genus is included in the larger genus Pouteria by some authorities, hence species such as Planchonella queenslandica are also known as Pouteria queenslandica.

gollark: Anyway, soon™ links are to be saved in the apiodata cores.
gollark: I wanted sentences but this was much easier and basically good enough.
gollark: And the slightly *hacky* logic which maps positions in the text node to position in the whole paragraph.
