Food uses[edit]

I don't have time right now to puzzle out what seems to be a complex situation about which species are eaten where, what they are called in Latin, English, and local languages. I have a couple of somewhat detailed sources, but I'm not sure they're consistent with each other:

Maybe they are, and I'm just lazy.

Cordia alliodora[edit]

This article referes to Cordia alliodora as Bocote but acorrding to [1] Cordia alliodora is Spanish elm not Bocote, the article on Bocote sais that it is not a single species. Maybe this species is one that Bocote is speaking of?--Mr. Dude ^{†@£К ║ Çøת†яĭβü†ĬŎИ} 01:05, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chá de Bugre[edit]

The new fad in quick weight-loss is an herb called "Chá de Bugre," and out of curiosity I looked it up here - no results. According to one site, its "Cordia salicifolia" or "Cordia ecalyculata," neither of which are listed here. Is this, like, a real plant? Snarfies 23:17, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seems legit - http://www.scielo.br/pdf/babt/v49n2/28586.pdf and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=1963951&dopt=Abstract are two journal articles written on the medicinal qualities of C. salicifolia Cham. It would be nice to get a full list of the 300 species from somewhere. Stan 20:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also check out http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxon.pl?402557 , which gives the synonym and more refs. Stan 20:54, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BOCOTE (CORDIA GERASCANTHUS ??)[edit]

Bocote is a term used for lumber, apparently from several different Cordia sources. Please create an article which clarifies which sources of Cordia are referred to as "Bocote". I was unable to research here at Wikipedia, the endangered status of "Bocote" trees due to the marketing of "Bocote" lumber. This is because it is unclear which species are marketed as "Bocote", although Spanish Elm is mentioned very briefly in passing. This is an important article because demand for "Bocote" is driving some significant deforestation. Please write an article which is specific to "Bocote" wood. Currently this topic is not addressed here at Wikipedia. Thanks. (I'd write the article myself, but know nothing on the subject!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.125.86.78 (talk) 17:16, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
