The name is derived from the Greek khamai, meaning ground, and kuparissos for cypress.They are medium-sized to large evergreen trees growing from 20–70 m (66–230 ft) tall, with foliage in flat sprays. The leaves are of two types, needle-like juvenile leaves on young seedlings up to a year old, and scale-like adult leaves. The cones are globose to oval, with 8-14 scales arranged in opposite decussate pairs; each scale bears 2-4 small seeds.species Chamaecyparis formosensis Matsum. - Taiwan Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (A.Murray) Parl. - California, Oregon, Washington Chamaecyparis obtusa (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl. - Japan Chamaecyparis pisifera (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl. - Honshu, Kyushu Chamaecyparis taiwanensis Masam. & Suzuki - Taiwan Chamaecyparis thyoides (L.) Britton - Eastern United States (Mississippi to Maine)Chamaecyparis taiwanensis is treated by many authors as a variety of C. obtusa (as C. obtusa var. formosana).Genus Fokienia is not always recognized as a separate genus from Chamaecyparis, in which case Chamaecyparis hodginsii (=Fokienia hodginsii should be added to the above list. On the other hand, a species which used to be included in this genus, as Chamaecyparis nootkatensis, has now been transferred on the basis of strong genetic and morphological evidence to the separate genus Xanthocyparis as Xanthocyparis nootkatensis, or back to Cupressus nootkatensis (the name it was originally described under in 1824).There are also several species described from the fossil record including:†Chamaecyparis eureka Middle Eocene, Axel Heiberg Island, Canada.†Chamaecyparis linguaefolia Early-Middle Oligocene, Colorado, USA.†Chamaecyparis ravenscragensis (=Fokienia ravenscragensis), if genus Fokienia is not recognized.Chamaecyparis species are used as food plants by the larva of some Lepidoptera species including Juniper Pug and Pine Beauty."@en }
