The term "fever tree" commonly refers to the African species Vachellia xanthophloea, which was named for its association with malaria, as its presence often indicated the presence of mosquitoes in the region. The scientific description of the tree was first published in 1773 by Swedish botanist Carl Peter Thunberg. However, the tree itself has been known and utilized by local populations long before its formal classification.
