Are Croton and Chasmanthium in the same family?
Croton (plant) Croton is an extensive flowering plant genus in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. The plants of this genus were described and introduced to Europeans by Georg Eberhard Rumphius. The common names for this genus are rushfoil and croton, but the latter also refers to "Codiaeum variegatum". The generic name comes from the Greek κρότος ("krótos "), which means "tick" and refers to the shape of the seeds of certain species.
Alessioporus Alessioporus is a fungal genus in the family Boletaceae. It was circumscribed in 2014 to contain the species formerly known as "Xerocomus ichnusanus". Alessioporus ichnusanus is found in southern Europe, where it grows in association with oak species and less often "Cistus" species. It grows even less frequently with "Castanea sativa" and possibly with "Eucalyptus camaldulensis" and "Pteridium aquilinum".
