Schanginia by stems with marked collenchymatic ridges, leaves being narrow, biconvex and containing distinct water-storage mesophyll, flowers with usually 2 stigmas, irregular fruits which are apically flattened and strongly carinate, and regular (spherical) seeds having a prominently reticulate seed coat pattern attributable to sunken lines above the anticlinal cell walls aligned with narrow ridges. Also the nuclear ITS and plastid psb B- psb H and atp B- rbc L sequences widely deviate.
Species richness: —A monotypic section.
