Annamocarya is a genus of
flowering plants in the family
Juglandaceae, containing only one species,
Annamocarya sinensis, native to southwestern
China (
Guangxi,
Guizhou,
Yunnan) and northern
Vietnam. It is related to the
hickories, and was formerly included in the same genus
Carya, as
Carya sinensis, but also shares a number of characters with the
walnuts in the genus
Juglans. It has no widely used English name, but is sometimes called
Beaked Hickory.
It is a medium-sized to large
evergreen tree growing to 30 m tall. The
leaves are 30-50 cm long, and pinnate with 7-11 leaflets. The leaflets have an entire margin, which distinguishes it from
Carya where the leaflets have a serrated margin. The
flowers are
catkins produced in spring, with the male catkins in clusters of 5-8 together (single in
Carya). The
fruit is a
nut 6-8 cm long and 4-6 cm broad, with a prominent acute beak at the apex.
