Wisteriopsis reticulata is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to mainland China, Hainan, Taiwan and Vietnam. [1] It was first described by George Bentham in 1852 as Millettia reticulata. [2] 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 . [3] It has become naturalized in parts of Florida and Japan. [1]
