The demise of Monechma: new combinations and a new classification in the resurrected genera Meiosperma and Pogonospermum (Acanthaceae).
Recent molecular phylogenetic results have demonstrated that s.l., a group of plants with ecological importance in the savanna and succulent biomes of sub-Saharan Africa, is polyphyletic with two discrete lineages recognisable. In the present work, we recognise Groups I and II at the generic rank, which can be distinguished by...Savanna biome, Africa, Meiosperma, Nomenclature, Justicioid, Pogonospermum, Taxonomy, Justicieae, Acanthaceae, Succulent biome, and Monechma
