It is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions, found in Africa, China, Japan, the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, Latin America (from southern Mexico to Brazil) and on various islands Pacific Islands. The most noteworthy feature of the genus is the number of the various flower parts (sepals, petals. stamens etc.) 99.9 percent of Monocots are trimerous (parts in threes or multiples of three), but Sciaphila
