Pot fruit trees inhabit the tropics all over the world, but the subfamily of the Lecythidoideae only on the South American continent. The woody fruit capsules are closed by a nail-like lid until they are ripe and release the seeds only after this lid has fallen out. The best-known representative of this plant family is the Brazil nut.
