Product Sources
Species in the genus are less important as a source of timber than for some of their non-timber products. St. Ignatius bean or Igasud (S. ignatti), a woody vine that is found in the forests of the Philippines, produces seeds which are a source of strychnine. S. toxifera , which occurs from Brazil to Costa Rica, yields Curare which is considered as one of the deadliest poisons. The poison is obtained from the bark and roots, and is widely used by some native Indians in South and Central America for poisoning their arrows. Curare paralyze almost instantaneously and soon causes death, even in very small doses.
