Austrocallerya pilipes, synonym Callerya pilipes, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, endemic to Queensland, Australia. [1] It is a robust twining vine, climbing up trees and shrubs. [2] It is known as the northern wistaria. [3]
Like the other species of Austrocallerya, A. pilipes is a robust, twining woody vine. It has evergreen leaves with 4–18 paired leaflets plus a terminal leaflet. Its flowers are arranged in a robust many-flowered terminal panicle. A. pilipes can be distinguished from the other species in the genus by its larger floral bracts, more than 8 mm (0.3 in) long and wide, as opposed to at most 2 mm (0.1 in) wide, which enclose the flower buds before the flower opens. Also, the surface of the seed pod lacks longitudinal ridges or grooves. [2]
The species was first described by Frederick Manson Bailey in 1890 as Millettia pilipes. [4] It was placed in the genus Callerya as Callerya pilipes by Anne M. Schot in 1994. A 2019 molecular phylogenetic study found that it did not belong either in the genus Millettia or in the genus Callerya, and placed it in a newly established genus Austrocallerya within an expanded tribe Wisterieae. [2]
Austrocallerya pilipes is endemic to Queensland, [1] where it occurs in rainforest, climbing up trees and over scrub at elevations from 300 to 1,200 m (1,000 to 3,900 ft). [2]
Afgekia is a small genus of large perennial climbing shrubs native to Thailand in Asia, belonging to the family Fabaceae. They are reminiscent of the related genus Wisteria.
Callerya is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae, tribe Wisterieae. It includes 12 species native to the eastern Himalayas, Indochina, southern China and Taiwan, and Peninsular Malaysia. Its species are climbers, generally reaching up to about 1 m (3 ft) tall. The genus has a somewhat complicated taxonomic history; its circumscription was substantially revised in 2019.

Wisteriopsis is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Fabaceae. Its native range is China to Indo-China and Temperate Eastern Asia. Wisteriopsis species are twining woody vines, generally resembling species of Wisteria. The genus was established in 2019 as a result of a molecular phylogenetic study, and includes species formerly placed in Millettia or Callerya.

Wisterieae is a tribe of flowering plants in the bean family Fabaceae. The tribe was first described in 1994 for the sole genus Wisteria, but was greatly expanded in 2019 to include 13 genera, six of which were new. Five had previously been placed in the tribe Millettieae. Members of the tribe are climbers of various kinds. Some, like Wisteria, are cultivated for their flowers.
Sigmoidala is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae, first established in 2019. Its only species is Sigmoidala kityana, native to Myanmar, northern Thailand and Laos. It was first described by William Grant Craib in 1927 as Millettia kityana.

Wisteriopsis reticulata is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to mainland China, Hainan, Taiwan and Vietnam. It was first described by George Bentham in 1852 as Millettia reticulata. Anne M. Schot moved it to Callerya reticulata in 1994, then as a result of a molecular phylogenetic study in 2019, it was moved to the newly created genus Wisteriopsis. It has become naturalized in parts of Florida and Japan.
