The description is based on the type species C. gonocarpa which is characterized by: Its clear yellow wood; pores in radial-echelon arrangement; rhombic, two sized, and microcrystals frequent in the axial parenchyma and wood rays; colored cell contents and silica lacking; very large crystals occasionally found in the tyloses.
