Pheasant-Berry

Margaritaria discoidea is a tree of the family Phyllanthaceae, commonly known as the pheasant-berry, egossa red pear or bushveld peacock-berry. It is native to the warmer, higher-rainfall areas of Africa, from the coastal Eastern Cape of South Africa to Senegal. It can grow up to 30 metres tall in forest and riverine situations, or be a shrub or small tree in drier, more open places. The fruit is a three-lobed capsule, golden-brown when ripe, with a dark metallic blue-green inner part that gives the bushveld peacock-berry its name. Wikipedia says the tree is used in traditional medicine across Africa, with a leaf decoction taken in Ivory Coast for blennorrhoea and for poisoning, and the bark used as a purgative in West Africa. The article on muti, southern African traditional medicine, shows a stem with an old scar from bark removal for muti use.
