科属（Family & Genus）：千屈菜科（Lythraceae）紫薇属
形态特征（Description）：落叶灌木或小乔木，高可达7米；树皮平滑，灰色或灰褐色；枝干多扭曲，小枝纤细，具4棱，略成翅状。叶互生或有时对生，纸质，椭圆形、阔矩圆形或倒卵形，长2.5-7厘米，宽1.5-4厘米，顶端短尖或钝形，有时微凹，基部阔楔形或近圆形，无毛或下面沿中脉有微柔毛，侧脉3-7对，小脉不明显；无柄或叶柄很短。花淡红色或紫色、白色，直径3-4厘米，常组成7-20厘米的顶生圆锥花序；花梗长3-15毫米，中轴及花梗均被柔毛；花萼长7-10毫米，外面平滑无棱，但鲜时萼筒有微突起短棱，两面无毛，裂片6，三角形，直立，无附属体；花瓣6，皱缩，长12-20毫米，具长爪；雄蕊36-42，外面6枚着生于花萼上，比其余的长得多；子房3-6室，无毛。蒴果椭圆状球形或阔椭圆形，长1-1.3厘米，幼时绿色至黄色，成熟时或干燥时呈紫黑色，室背开裂；种子有翅，长约8毫米。花期6-9月，果期9-12月。
分布（Distribution）：我国北至吉林南至海南均有，原产亚洲，现广植于热带地区。
用途（Use）：花色鲜艳美丽，花期长，寿命长，树龄有达200年的，现热带地区已广泛栽培为庭园观赏树，有时亦作盆景。花白色的称银薇 L. indica Linn. f. alba ( Nichols.) Rehd.，紫薇的木材坚硬、耐腐，可作农具、家具、建筑等用材；树皮、叶及花为强泻剂；根和树皮煎剂可治咯血、吐血、便血。
