Description

Chionanthus albidiflorus (syn. Linociera albidiflora (Thwaites) C.B.Clarke) is a species of flowering plant in the family Oleaceae. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. It is sometimes treated in the segregate genus Linociera, though this does not differ from Chionanthus in any character other than leaf persistence, not a taxonomically significant character.
