Odyendea is a genus of trees belonging to the family Simaroubaceae, in the order Sapindales (formerly Rutales or Geraniales). The genus is native to western tropical Africa. [1]

Odyendea klaineana is a small to medium-sized tree that can grow up to 20 m (65.6 ft) meters tall. [3]
tree to 30 m (98.4 ft) with leaves imparipinnate, leaflets opposite to sub-opposite, petiolulate, entire, [4]
calyx 4- rarely 5 lobed, petals 4 rarely 5, fruits woody, leaflets oblong to obovate, seeds yield a fat/oil. [5]
Odyendea gabunensis reaches a height of 120–130 ft (36.6–39.6 m), with the bole up 80 ft (24.4 m) with good form and the trunk can reach a diameter of 5–6 ft (1.5–1.8 m). [6] [7]
The bark of Odyendea gabunensis is called Onzang in Gabon. [7] It is also called Mbanko (syn Odyendea zimmermanii) as reported in Tanzania and Kenya. [6]
The wood of Odyendea gabunensis is whitish to straw coloured,
sap wood and heartwood not differentiated. Texture is coarse with irregular
grain. It dries rapidly, with little checking but the warp is severe. It splits severely during log conversion, stock saws, planes and nails easily, easy to peel into veneers. It can be used for making boxes, crates,
veneers,
plywood,
pulpwood and
chipboard.Cite error: A <ref>

The genus of Odyendea was first published in H.G.A.Engler & K.A.E.Prantl (edited), Naturlichen Pflanzenfamilien vol.3 (Issue 4) on page 215 in 1896. [1]
The genus name of Odyendea is the name of the tree in Gabon. It has other local names such as onzan, nzan, onzeng, onzang, onzon, osendje, ozendje, ozenje, benzeng, bondjengi, odiendle, odieneje, odjenge, odyendie, odzense, dibindi, disengo, lebvola, moussiguiri, musigiri, musigiti and noka. [8]
Hans Peter Nooteboom (1934–2022) in 1962 (published in 1963), took a very broad view of the genus Quassia L. and included therein various genera including, Hannoa Planch., Odyendyea (Pierre) Engl., Pierreodendron Engl., Samadera Gaertn., Simaba Aubl. and Simarouba Aubl. [9] In 2007, molecular analyses of the Simaroubaceae family (Clayton et al., 2007), suggested the splitting up of genera Quassia again, with all Nooteboom's synonyms listed above being resurrected as independent genera. [10]
Odyendea is listed as a possible synonym of Quassia L. by GRIN ( United States Department of Agriculture and the Agricultural Research Service) [11]
It has 2 known species; [1]
They are native to the countries (and regions) of; Angola, Benin, Burkina, Cameroon, [12] Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Gulf of Guinea Islands, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Togo, Uganda, Zambia and Zaïre. [1]
o g found 2,500m in Gabon, dry deciduous forests, open sandy or Savannah-type vegetation [4]
Odyendea gabunensis (syn. Hannoa klaineana) and Odyendea klaineana (syn Hannoa chlorantha) are both used in traditional folk medicines of Central African countries (including Gabon, [13]) against fevers and malaria. [3] [14] [15]
6 indole alkaloids have been found from the bark of the trunk of Odyendea gabonensis. [16]
In 1985, two quassinoids Odyendane and Odyendene were extracted from the trunk bark of Odyendea gabonensis. [17]
In 1986, Two quassinoids and two coumarinolignoids have been extracted from Odyendea gabonensis (syn Hannoa klaineana) roots. [18]
The fruits of Odyendyea gabonensis contain a quassinoid Odyendanol and two new steroids. [19] A quassinoid from the bark of Odyendyea gabonensis also has the potential to be a anti-breast and anti-ovarian cancer agent. [20]
Several compounds have been extracted from the stem bark of Odyendyea gabonensis, they were then tested for their activity against the bacteria species; Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, the fungi species; Mucor miehei and Candida albicans, and the plant pathogen oomycetes species; Aphanomyces cochlioides, Pythium ultimum and Rhizoctonia solani. [21]
Odyendea klaineana has wood that is hard, heavy, and dark, making it suitable for carving and furniture making. The roots and leaves are also used in folk medicines for their anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties. Additionally, the plant is used in reforestation programs due to its ability to quickly establish and grow in degraded lands. [3]
The fruits of Odyendea gabunensis (syn. Quassia gabonensis), known locally as 'Nzeng' are used locally as a condiment. [22]
