About this species

Annona haematantha is a species of flowering plant in the family Annonaceae. It is a tree or liana native to northern Brazil, the Guianas (French Guiana, Guyana and Suriname), southeastern Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Friedrich Anton Wilhelm Miquel, the Dutch botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its blood-red flowers (Latinized forms of Greek αἱμάτῐνος, haimátinos and ἄνθος, ánthos).
