Podococcus is a genus of palms found in tropical Africa. It includes two recognized species: [1] [2] [3]
Erythrococca is a plant genus of the family Euphorbiaceae, first described in 1849. It is native to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
Mareya is a plant genus of the family Euphorbiaceae, first described as a genus in 1860. It is native to tropical western and central Africa.
Mareyopsis is a plant genus of the family Euphorbiaceae first described as a genus in 1919. It is native to western and central Africa.
Microdesmis is a genus of plant of the family Pandaceae. It is native to tropical Africa, China and Southeast Asia.
Panda is a plant genus of the family Pandaceae. It contains only one known species, Panda oleosa, native to western and central Africa.
Pentabrachion is a plant genus from the family Phyllanthaceae first described as a genus in 1864. It contains only one known species, Pentabrachion reticulatum, native to tropical Africa.
Nephthytis is a genus of eight species of flowering plants in the family Araceae, native to tropical western Africa, with one species in Borneo.
Ancistrocladus is a genus of woody lianas in the monotypic family Ancistrocladaceae. The branches climb by twining other stems or by scrambling with hooked tips. They are found in the tropics of the Old World.
Palisota is a genus of plant in family Commelinaceae, first described in 1828. It is native to sub-Saharan Africa.
Pausinystalia is a largely African genus of plant in the family Rubiaceae. As of the present time Pausinystalia contains the following 5 species:
Renealmia is a plant genus in the family Zingiberaceae. Its members are native to tropical Africa and tropical America.
Eremospatha is a genus of climbing flowering plants in the palm family found in tropical Africa. These rattans are uncommon in cultivation and poorly understood by taxonomists;. Closely related to Laccosperma, they differentiated by the near complete absence of bracts and bracteoles. The name is from Greek meaning "without a spathe".
Cercestis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae. The species in this genus are all climbers and are endemic to Africa. At intervals along the stem they produce long leafless shoots called flagella. Many of the species in Cersestis show signs of fenestration.
Culcasia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae, native to tropical Africa. Most of its species are climbers and resemble Cercestis except for the fact that they don't produce flagella.
Ancistrorhynchus is a genus of flowering plants from the orchid family Orchidaceae. It contains 16 species native to tropical Africa.
Craterispermum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. It contains 16 species that occur in tropical Africa and Seychelles. It is the only genus in the tribe Craterispermeae, of which the divergence time is estimated at 34.8 million years ago.
Motandra is a genus of plant in the family Apocynaceae native to tropical Africa. As of August 2013 the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families recognises 3 species:
Haumania is a genus of plants native to Japan, New Guinea and central Africa. It contains 5 recognized species:
Farquharia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Apocynaceae, first described as a genus in 1912. It contains only one recognized species, Farquharia elliptica, native to tropical western and central Africa.
Orthopichonia is a genus of plants in the family Apocynaceae, first described as a genus in 1953. It was initially given the name Orthandra, but this turned out to be an illegitimate homonym. Orthopichonia is native to Africa.
