对南部非洲特有的单一型 Curtisia Aiton 属进行了综述。对果实和种子结构的详细研究提供了新的证据，支持柯蒂斯科和山茱萸科之间的密切关系。与Comales的其他几个成员的比较揭示了与Comus s.I.的某些物种在动物学上的相似性，这些物种有时被视为分离属Dendrobenthemia Hutch和Benthamidia Spach。我们还提供有关 Assegai 树 Curtisia dentata (Burm.f.) C.A.Sm 的历史信息。及其用途，以及正式的分类学修订，包括命名法、典型化、详细描述和地理分布。
A review of the monotypic southern African endemic genus Curtisia Aiton is presented. Detailed studies of the fruit and seed structure provided new evidence in support of a close relationship between the family Curtisiaceae and Comaceae. Comparisons with several other members of the Comales revealed carpological similarities to certain species of Comus s.I ., sometimes treated as segregate genera Dendrobenthamia Hutch, and Benthamidia Spach. We also provide information on the history of the assegai tree, Curtisia dentata (Burm.f.) C.A.Sm. and its uses, as well as a formal taxonomic revision, including nomenclature, typification, detailed description and geographical distribution.
