The Family Salvadoraceae includes approximately 12 genera and 100 species of trees and shrubs that are commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions. These plants are also known by several other names, including the Scurrula family, the Misteltoe family, and the African mistletoe family. The family is characterized by the presence of parasitic plants that attach themselves to host trees, where they obtain nutrients and water. Salvadoraceae plants are also known for their medicinal properties, which have been used for centuries by indigenous populations. Despite their versatility, Salvadoraceae plants remain understudied, and further research is needed to uncover their full potential.
