Vernacular names

Joinvillea is a flowering plants genus in the family Joinvilleaceae. The family consists of one genus with species distributed from the Malay Peninsula to the Caroline Islands and high islands in the Pacific Ocean.

They closely resemble large grass plants, in both general appearance and microanatomy, but possess fleshy fruits.
