Lissocarpa species share various characters with other members of Ebenaceae, e.g., the black color of roots and bark, extrafloral nectaries on abaxial leaf surfaces, a persistent calyx, unisexual flowers, biovulate carpels with pendulous ovules, and a similar wood anatomy producing a hard, dark heartwood timber similar to ebony. They are slow-growing trees found on a wide variety of soils and sites. They grow in a large range of conditions. Best growth is in the bottom lands of River Valleys.[5]
