REMARKS
Turraea kindtii can be recognized by its inflorescence in multiflorous fascicles with large, white to yellow flowers reaching 6-8 cm, its staminal tube with finely membranous appendages, 3.5-4 mm long, and its subgloboid receptaculum pollinis, 2 mm de diam. ( Fig. 11C View FIG )
Study of the original material of Turraea kindtii shows that Humbertioturraea malifolia and H. ripicola both initially described in Turraea represent the same species and are therefore considered here as later synonyms. A second step lectotypification is necessary for the name T. malifolia Baker since two duplicates are extant at K. Therefore, the best preserved material at K is designated here as the lectotype. Three duplicates of original material of the name T. ripicola are desposited at P. Therefore, the best preserved material of Perrier de la Bâthie 323, P00541928, is designated here as the lectotype.
Turraea kindtii grows in the western and northern dry deciduous forests of Madagascar.It is known from Mahajunga to the far north in the Montagne des Français( Madagascar Catalogue 2024).
