A revision of the genus Phyllonoma (Grossulariaceae)

Abstract:

The genus Phyllonoma, easily recognized by its epiphyllous inflorescence, ranges from the mountains of Mexico and Central America into the Andes of northwestern Bolivia. A key to the species and distribution maps and descriptions for the 4 species recognized, Phyllonoma ruscifolia Willd. ex Schultes, P. tenuidens Pittier, P. laticuspis (Turcz.) Engler, and P. weberbaueri Engler, are given. Vegetative and floral anatomy as well as pollen morphology are discussed in relation to taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus. © 1977 The New York Botanical Garden.
