• Resumen

  • In Upper Guinea in Africa three species of Triclisia Benth. (Menispermaceae) are recognized: T. dictyophylla Diels, T. patens Oliv. and T. subcordata Oliv. Triclisia dictyophylla and T. subcordata, as delimited in the revision of this genus by Troupin (1962), each include more than one distinct species. On the basis of a comparative morphological analysis, T. dictyophylla is split here into T. dictyophylla s.s. and T. gilletii (De Wild.) Staner and T. subcordata is split into T. angolensis Exell, T. hypochrysea Diels and T. subcordata s.s. No new names have to be published. Illustrations are provided along with distribution maps.
