Diospyros (Graece διός + πυρος 'triticum Iovis', scil. 'cibus divinus'^[1]^[2]) est genus Ericalium cui sunt plus quam 700 species arborum et fruticum deciduarum et sempervirentium, quarum maior pars in zona tropica endemicae sunt, cum paucae species in regionibus temperatis inveniuntur. Nonnullae species magni aestimantur ob eorum lignum durum, grave, obscurum, nonnullaeque ob eorum fructus. Nonnullae sunt ornamentales, et multae magnum momentum oecologicum habent.
