Annona dioica is a species of plant in the family Annonaceae. It is native to Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay.[3] Augustin Saint-Hilaire, the French botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its flowers which have different reproductive structures (δίς, dís, two in Greek) and (οἶκος, oîkos, house in Greek).
