Cneoraceae was a relict family of Mediterraneanshrubs that evolved under tropical conditions during the Cenozoic era. It is a dicot that generally favours higher altitudes and is rich in tannin. It produces both hermaphrodite and male flowers, but the male flowers produce more fertile pollen, leading to a fruit.[1]
