Species [1]

Bryaspis is a small genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes two species of herbaceous plants native to equatorial West Africa and Cameroon. [1] It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae, and was recently assigned to the informal monophyletic Dalbergia clade of the Dalbergieae. [2] [3] Typical habitats are seasonally dry tropical grassland and open areas, often growing in wet, swampy, rocky and sandy soil. Plants can be weeds on cultivated land. [1]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Dalbergieae</span> Tribe of legumes

The tribe Dalbergieae is an early-branching clade within the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae. Within that subfamily, it belongs to an unranked clade called the dalbergioids. It was recently revised to include many genera formerly placed in tribes Adesmieae and Aeschynomeneae and to be included in a monophyletic group informally known as the dalbergioids sensu lato. The members of this tribe have a distinctive root nodule morphology, often referred to as an "aeschynomenoid" or "dalbergioid" nodule.

Maraniona lavinii is a species of legume in the family Fabaceae, and was recently assigned to the informal monophyletic Pterocarpus clade of the Dalbergieae. It is endemic to the Marañón Valley in northern Peru. It is the only member of the genus Maraniona and is closely related to the genus Tipuana.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Dalbergioids</span> Clade of legumes

The dalbergioids are an early-branching monophyletic clade of the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae or Papilionaceae. They are pantropical, particularly being found in the neotropics and sub-Saharan Africa. This clade is consistently resolved as monophyletic in molecular phylogenetic analyses. It is estimated to have arisen 55.3 ± 0.5 million years ago. A node-based definition for the dalbergioids is: "The least inclusive crown clade that contains Amorpha fruticosaL. 1753 and Dalbergia sissooRoxb. ex DC. 1825." Indehiscent pods may be a morphological synapomorphy for the clade.
