Ochnaceae ( Latin: Ochnaceae ) is a family of flowering plants in the order Malpighiflora , common in the tropics and subtropics of the whole world. The number of genera is about thirty-five; the number of species is about six hundred. [2] For the most part, these are trees and shrubs , sometimes shrubs and grasses are found.

Distribution
The range of the family covers South and Central America , Africa from tropical equatorial regions to the very south of the continent; South and Southeast Asia , the Indonesian islands, as well as northeast Australia . A typical habitat for the ocher is tropical rainforest .
The greatest species diversity is observed in South America .
Biological Description
Most of the ochines are shrubs and trees (representatives of the genus Lophyra reach 50 m in height and 2 m in diameter). Some species are shrubs (e.g. Adenarake ) and grasses .
The family has both evergreen and deciduous plants . Leaves with petiole , sometimes leathery (for example, in the genus Ochna ). Leaves with rare exceptions are simple , but there are exceptions (for example, in plants from the genus Godoya leaves are pinnate).
Bisexual flowers .

Some ocher endosperms are present in the seeds (genera Godoya , Luxemburgia , Sauvagesia ...), while others are not present (genera Elvasia , Lophira , Ochna ...).
Usage
In practical terms, African species from the Lofira genus, which are a source of valuable wood , are of greatest importance. The wood of Lophira alata ( Lophira alata ) has a very high resistance against insects and fungi , and therefore finds application as a building material where strength and resistance to decay are required: pillars of fences, steps of stairs, handles of tools.
Some aquatic plants are used as ornamental plants - this primarily refers to plants from the genus Okhna ( Ochna ). They are valued primarily for the bright red-bronze color of young leaves.
