Brosimum
Brosimum is a genus of plants in the mulberry family, Moraceae, native to tropical regions of the Americas.
The Breadnut (B. alicastrum) was used by the Maya civilization for its edible nut. The dense vividly colored scarlet wood of Satine Bloodwood (B. paraense) is used for decorative woodworking.[2] Plants of this genus are otherwise used for timber, building materials, and in a cultural context.
