Entomophily and seed predation of Witsenia maura (Iridaceae), a rare fynbos species [PDF]
, 1989 Pollination and seed predation of Witsenia maura Thunb., a rare fynbos species, was investigated. Exclusion experiments indicated that the plant is entomophilous (although flowers possess traits compatible with ornithophily, which may occur), with ...

Molecular phylogenetics clarifies generic boundaries of the papilionoid legume subtribe Clitoriinae
TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Clitoriinae is a morphologically distinctive and pantropically distributed subtribe within the legume tribe Phaseoleae (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae), yet its genus‐level taxonomic classification remains uncertain. This study presents the most comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of Clitoriinae to date, integrating plastid (matK/trnK) and ...
