Parainvolucrella R.J. Wang, a new monotypic genus for P. scabra (Wall. ex Kurz) M.D.Yuan & R.J.Wang, new combination, is segregated from the Hedyotis - Oldenlandia complex, based on morphological and molecular evidence. Phylogenetically, the new genus is sister to Scleromitrion , from which it differs by a combination of morphological characters: h...

Hedyotis longiramulis sp. nov. (Rubiaceae) is described from Guangdong Province, China. It is similar to H. caudatifolia but differs in having puberulent, more or less tetragonal and decussately sulcate juvenile stems, waxy leaf surface, short inflorescence peduncles, high length ratio of corolla lobe to tube, and subglobose capsules. The phylogene...

... The systematics of the tribe Spermacoceae genera is historically among the most challenging within the family Rubiaceae (Davis et al., 2009;Kårehed et al., 2008). In recent years, the reassessment of generic boundaries within Spermacoceae based on molecular phylogenies and morphological data advanced, resulting in the description of several new genera Salas et al., 2015;Xu et al., 2021). Within the tribe, the Spermacoce clade (Kårehed et al., 2008) has historically been one of the most taxonomically complex and controversial groups within the family, particularly regarding generic classification (Dessein, 2003;. ...
