Distribution (Last Modified On 10/30/2014)

Generic distribution and diversity: The only pantropical genus in the family (absent in the Pacific area except in New Caledonia); about 40 species; 13 species in Malesia. (From: Hoogland 1951, 1953.)

Known morphospecies (Last Modified On 10/30/2014)

Provisional morphospecies: Tetracera sp. 1

Morphospecies notes: Young twigs, branches of the inflorescences and sepals covered by strigose and short stellate hairs, the same indument as in Tetracera nordtiana . However, mature flowers are needed for further identification. Duplicates at L are too young (only buds). (Arias, Aug 2014.)
