Andea is a genus of flowering plants in the family Lauraceae. It includes 26 species of trees and shrubs native to the tropical Americas, including Costa Rica, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Peru.[1] Most species grow in the northern Andes mountains, after which the genus is named, in tropical montane forests above 1000 meters elevation. One species (A. fulvescens) is native to the Cordillera de Talamanca of Costa Rica.[2]
Plants in the genus are gynodioecious, with some individual plants bearing female flowers only while others bear bisexual (hermaphrodite) flowers. The species were formerly placed in genus Ocotea, and are distinguished from other gynodioecious Ocotea species by their thick terete twigs (generally 6 mm or more in diameter, and 4–7 mm in diameter in a few species), sessile or nearly sessile leaves without domatia, and large flowers (6 mm or more in diameter) with rotate tepals and (shallowly) bowl-shaped cupules.[2]
