Species in the genus Zanthoxylum of plants

 
 

Zanthoxylum atchoum - Zanthoxylum atchoum is a forest tree in the Rutaceae family that grows in Côte d'Ivoire's Eastern Guinean forests. It is endemic to Côte d'Ivoire where it is threatened by habitat loss. Waterman assigned Z. atchoum to this combination after morphological and secondary metabolite evidence revealed that Fagara should be subsumed in Zanthoxylum.

 
 

West indian satinwood - In its native subtropical range Z. flavum grows in areas with average to high rainfall year-round or with defined dry seasons. It grows on a variety of soils with different drainage regimes from rapidly draining volcanic derived soils to well-draining clay soils. clusters of small pale yellow to cream-coloured flowers and small black seeds. Pollination is probably from bees, and the seeds are thought to be dispersed by birds and bats as with the closely related species, Z. martinicense.

Hawai'i pricklyash - Zanthoxylum hawaiiense, commonly known A?e or Hawai?i pricklyash, is a species of flowering plant in the citrus family, Rutaceae, that is endemic to Hawaii. It can be found at elevations of 550–1,740 m in dry forests, where it grows on lava flows, and mixed mesic forests on the Island of Hawai?i, Maui, Moloka?i, and L?na?i. It is threatened by habitat loss.

Kauai pricklyash - Zanthoxylum kauaense, commonly known as A?e or Kaua?i Prickly-ash, is a species of flowering plant in the citrus family, Rutaceae, that is endemic to Hawaii. It usually inhabits mixed mesic forests at elevations of 300–1,980 m , but can also be found in dry and wet forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.

 
 

Oahu pricklyash - Zanthoxylum oahuense, commonly known as A?e or O?ahu Prickly-ash, is a species of flowering plant in the citrus family, Rutaceae, that is endemic to the island of O?ahu in Hawaii. It is a small tree, reaching a height of 5 m . It is threatened by habitat loss.

 
 

Zanthoxylum psammophilum - Zanthoxylum psammophilum is a species of shrub or small tree in the Rutaceae family. It is endemic to Côte d'Ivoire. Zanthoxylum psammophilum, a new combination created in 1975 to subsume the genus Fagara into the genus Zanthoxylum based on morphology and secondary metabolites, which has a section that specializes in the conservation and biodiversity of flowering plants of Côte d'Ivoire. However, the International Plant Names Index lists Fagara as the genus, and Zanthoxylum as the synonym. The type specimen for the plant was collected in the ecotone between the lowland Eastern Guinean forests and the inland Guinean forest-savanna mosaic in the Lagunes region.
