Nomenclature Reason:
The generic name
Schefflera J.R. Forst. & G. Forst. (1776) was conserved against the older name
Sciodaphyllum (1756) based on a proposal by Smith (1941) that was adopted in 1950. With the reinstatement of
Sciodaphyllum and the transfer of its members out of
Schefflera (Lowry et al., 2019), conservation of the former name no longer comes into play.
