The dog poison plants (Apocynaceae) are a plant family and belong to the order Enzianartigen (Gentianales). The family of dog poison plants (Apocynaceae) arranged into five Unterfamilien and 415 kinds also over 4500 kinds.

Today due to new phylogenetischer realizations, which were won with molecular-biological methods, the silk plant plants (Asclepiadoideae) are integrated than Unterfamilie into those of the dog poison plants (Apocynaceae), this Unterfamilie contain more than half of the kinds and kinds of the family.

Description

Into the family belong some trees, bushes and herbs, above all in addition, to Lianen and Sukkulente. Many kinds contain (mostly clear) a milk.

The sheets are usually evergreen, undivided, ganzrandig, usually against-constantly and without

The blooms possess usually a highly specialized dusting mechanism

Spreading

The spreading covers the moderate zone up to the Tropics. One finds the largest diversity of species however clear in the Tropics and Subtropen. In Europe only few kinds and kinds are domestic, in Central Europe only two kinds of evergreen (Vinca) and the Schwalbenwurz (Vincetoxicum hirundinaria).
