The '''Combretaceae''' are a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plant]]s in the order [[Myrtales]]. The family includes about 530 species of [[tree]]s, [[shrub]]s, and [[liana]]s in ca 10 [[genus|genera]].<ref name="Christenhusz-Byng2016">{{cite journal |author1=Christenhusz, M. J.

Some members of this family produce useful construction timber, such as idigbo from ''[[Terminalia ivorensis]]''. The commonly cultivated ''[[Quisqualis indica]]'' is now placed in the genus ''[[Combretum]]''.
