Kurz |}}Scutia myrtina is a species of plant in the family Rhamnaceae. It is commonly known as cat-thorn.[1] DescriptionScutia myrtina is a variable plant that may grow as a shrub or tree of 2-10 m tall with trunk diameter to 30 cm or often a scandent liane, climbing by means of thorns. Older bark is dark, corky and longitudinally fissured. Younger growth is hairy and branchlets green and angular.[2] The thorns are sharp, recurved and paired at the nodes, but sometimes absent.[3] The common name, cat-thorn, refers to the thorns that look like a cat's claw. Leaves are ovate to obovate in shape, often notched at the apex, but always with mucronulate tip, opposite with usually entire margin, sometimes wavy.[3] The fruit is a berry with black skin and white flesh containing 2 to 3 seeds.[3] DistributionThe plant is found in Asia and Africa.[2] ConservationScutia myrtina has not been assessed for the IUCN Red List (as at 2018-05-07), but is listed as least concern in the Red List of South African Plants.[4]UsesSeveral species in the genus Scutia have been used in traditional medicine, such as the Ayurvedic system from India.[5][6] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Flora of Mozambique|url=https://www.mozambiqueflora.com/speciesdata/species.php?species_id=137720|accessdate=7 May 2018}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q3476551}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title=African Plant Database|url=http://www.ville-ge.ch/musinfo/bd/cjb/africa/details.php?langue=an&id=83630|accessdate=7 May 2018}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Plant 0f the World|url=http://plantsoftheworldonline.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:718872-1|accessdate=7 May 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Red List of South African Plants|url=http://redlist.sanbi.org/species.php?species=4062-2|publisher=SANBI|accessdate=7 May 2018}} 5. ^{{Cite news|url=http://kumbulanursery.co.za/plants/scutia-myrtina|title=Scutia myrtina|last=Lorraine|date=2011-04-07|work=Kumbula Indigenous Nursery|access-date=2017-08-04|language=en}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=http://indiabiodiversity.org/species/show/32328/?max=8&offset=0&classification=265799&taxon=30297&view=grid%7CScutia|title=Scutia myrtina (Burm. f.)
