The Buckthorns (Rhamnus) are a genus (or two genera, if Frangula is treated as distinct) of about 100 species of shrubs or small trees from 1-10 m tall (rarely to 15 m), in the buckthorn family Rhamnaceae. They are native throughout the temperate and subtropical Northern Hemisphere, and also more locally in the subtropical Southern Hemisphere in parts of Africa and South America. Some species are invasive outside their natural ranges. Both deciduous and evergreen species occur.

  • The Buckthorns (Rhamnus) are a genus (or two genera, if Frangula is treated as distinct) of about 100 species of shrubs or small trees from 1-10 m tall (rarely to 15 m), in the buckthorn family Rhamnaceae. They are native throughout the temperate and subtropical Northern Hemisphere, and also more locally in the subtropical Southern Hemisphere in parts of Africa and South America. Some species are invasive outside their natural ranges. Both deciduous and evergreen species occur. The leaves are simple, 3-15 cm long, and arranged either alternately or in opposite pairs. One distinctive character of many buckthorns is the way the veination curves upward towards the tip of the leaf. The plant bears fruits which are dark blue berries. The name is due to the woody spine on the end of each twig in many species. Buckthorns are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species – see list of Lepidoptera that feed on buckthorns.
  • Kreuzdorn (Rhamnus), auch Wegedorn, bildet eine Gattung innerhalb der Familie der Kreuzdorngewächse (Rhamnaceae). Sie besteht aus etwa 155 Arten, wenn die Faulbäume (Frangula) als Untergattung den Kreuzdornen zugerechnet werden, werden die Faulbäume als eigene Gattung gesehen, aus etwa 80 Arten.
  • Les nerpruns (Rhamnus) sont un genre (ou deux genres, si Frangula est traité comme un genre distinct) d'environ 100 espèces d'arbustes ou de petits arbres de 1 à 10 m de haut (rarement à 15 m) de la famille des Rhamnaceae. Ce sont des espèces indigènes des régions subtropicales présentes principalement en Afrique et en Amérique du Sud.
  • Szakłak (Rhamnus L. ) – rodzaj roślin należący do rodziny szakłakowatych. Liczy ok. 30 gatunków, w florze Polski występuje tylko jeden gatunek. Gatunkiem typowym jest Rhamnus catharticus L..
  • Круши́на — самая крупная и наименее специализированная триба рода жостеровые растений семейства Крушиновые, порядок крушиновые. Включает 24 рода, около 560 видов. Слово Жо́стер или же́стер в настоящее время относится преимущественно к одному виду, Крушина слабительная — Жостер слабительный . В некоторых источниках слово Жостер используют для определения рода и в названиях видов. Латинское название Frangula происходит от лат. frangere — ломать, по ломкой древесине. Латинское название Rhamnus произошло от греч. rhamnos — колючий кустарник, так как ветви у многих представителей семейства усеяны шипами.
  • Getaplar (Rhamnus) är ett växtsläkte med lövfällande buskar eller små träd.
  • Cehri, cehrigiller (Rhamnaceae) familyasından Rhamnus ve Frangula cinsini oluşturan küçük çalılara verilen ad. Herdem yeşil veya yaprak döken küçük çalılardır. Dallar diken uçludur. Yapraklar karşılıklı dizili, basit, tam veya dişlidir. Çiçekler küçük olup 4-5 parçalıdır. Meyve etli küçük ve suludur. Anavatanı ılıman ve yarı tropik bölgeler ile Afrika ve Güney Amerika'dır.
