Validation of Myristica pushpangadaniana (Myristicaceae)
Phytotaxa, 2023Myristica Gronovius (1755: 141) was established in Flora orientalis and comprises about 172 species, distributed from tropical Asia to western Pacific (POWO 2023). In India, Myristica has seven taxa, among them six endemics. Of these, M. andamanica Hooker (1886: 103) is found only in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, M.

Nomenclature and typification of Staudtia pterocarpa (Myristicaceae)
Phytotaxa, 2020The tropical African genus Staudtia Warburg (1897a: 128) (Myristicaceae) is most often treated as consisting of two species, the widespread S. kamerunensis Warburg (1897a: 241) and the little-known S. pterocarpa Warburg (1897a: 243), the latter being endemic to the island of São Tomé (São Tomé and Príncipe, Gulf of Guinea). Staudtia pterocarpa has been

Pollen Diversity and Evolution in Myristicaceae (Magnoliales)
International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2003Myristicaceae consist of 21 genera and nearly 500 species of lowland rainforest trees with a pantropical distribution. This article presents new scanning electron microscopy observations on pollen of 13 genera, including all Asian genera, which had previously received very little attention from palynologists.

Testing candidate plant barcode regions in the Myristicaceae
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2008AbstractThe concept and practice of DNA barcoding have been designed as a system to facilitate species identification and recognition. The primary challenge for barcoding plants has been to identify a suitable region on which to focus the effort. The slow relative nucleotide substitution rates of plant mitochondria and the technical issues with the use

Chemical studies on medicinal myristicaceae from Amazonia
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 1979Drugs from Myristicaceae species are used in the Amazon region as hallucinogens and arrow poisons, as well as for the healing of infected wounds. The former effects were attributed by Schultes and Holmstedt to tryptamines and carbolines. The latter activity is now tentatively ascribed to pterocarpans and neolignans.
