Name: Zanthoxylum chalybeum

Description: Zanthoxylum chalybeum is a deciduous spiny shrub or tree up to 12 m, crown rounded but open. Bark pale grey; smooth dark with scales and prickles. The bole has characteristic large, conical, woody knobs with sharp prickles. The branches also bear scattered thorns with conspicuous dark scales. Leaves compound, usually 3-5 pairs of shiny leaflets plus a terminal leaflet; leaflets oblong to elliptic or lanceolate, 2.5-7 x 1-2.5 cm, with a strong citrus smell when crushed; sparsely dotted with pellucid glands; petiole 1-5 cm long, the petiole and rachis with small, hooked prickles scattered along the length. Flowers sweet scented, inconspicuous, yellowish-green, in short sprays (racemes or panicles) 5-10 cm long, produced immediately below the leaves at the base of the new branchlets. Fruit spherical, about 5 mm in diameter, reddish-brown, splitting to allow the shiny black seeds to partly protrude. Zanthoxylum means ‘yellow wood’, from the Greek ‘xanthos’ (yellow) and ‘xylon’ (wood). The specific epithet chalybeum means steel grey.Zanthoxylum chalybeum is a deciduous spiny shrub or tree up to 12 m, crown rounded but open. Bark pale grey; smooth dark with scales and prickles.
