Taxon Profile     (Last Modified On 4/5/2024)
Reference(s):
Fl. Madagasc.: unpublished
APG website treatment: Rubiaceae
Notes:

In the past material from Madagascar has been referred to the following genera: Canthium, Cremaspora, Fernelia & Rothmannia, but as currently circumscribed none of these genera are currently regarded as present in Madagascar. Species formerly referred to Canthium are now various scattered among: Peponidium, Psydrax, Pyrostria, Vangueria & Rytigynia. Specimens tentatively referred to Rothmannia are now placed in Hyperacanthus (Rakotonasolo & Davis, 2001).

Summary and Status Directory     (Last Modified On 4/5/2024)
Subordinate Taxon Data:

The data in this table are derived from the corresponding Genus and Species pages. The table provides a summary of the treatment presented in the published parts of the Flore de Madagascar et des Comores, together with a summary of the data presented in the Madagascar Catalogue, including information on the number of species currently accepted, and an estimate of the number of undescribed species for the genera for which a recent taxonomic evaluation has been conducted. The number of accepted species is added to the estimate of undescribed species to provide an estimated total. Place cursor over headers marked [+] for further explanation of the column contents.
