Leonardoxa africana (Baill.) Aubrév. View in CoL

Adansonia, ser. 2, 8: 179 (1968). — Humboldtia africana Baill., Hist. Pl. 2: 99 (1870). — Type: Mann 726, Cameroon, Littoral Province, Cameroon River (= wouri estuary), 1861 (holo-, K; iso-, P) .

The description of Leonardoxa by LÉONARD (1993) is still generally accurate, but must be amended in the following ways to take into account the variation described here: twigs with or without a fusiform, hollow infra-nodal swelling; inflorescences axillary on young twigs, ramiflorous, or cauliflorous.
