Dispersing towards Madagascar: Biogeography and evolution of the Madagascan endemics of the Spermacoceae tribe (Rubiaceae) [PDF]
Despite the close proximity of the African mainland, dispersal of plant lineages towards Madagascar remains intriguing. The composition of the Madagascan flora is rather mixed and shows besides African representatives, also floral elements of India, Southeast Asia, Australia, and the Neotropics.

Evolution of woody life form on tropical mountains in the tribe Spermacoceae (Rubiaceae) [PDF]
PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Spermacoceae are mainly an herbaceous group in the Rubiaceae. However, a few lineages are woody and are found in a diverse range of habitat types. Three of the largest woody lineages (Arcytophyllum, Hedyotis, and Kadua) are characterized by their distribution in the moist tropical mountains and have disjunct distribution patterns ...

The genera Gomphocalyx and Phylohydrax (Rubiaceae) have been invariably placed in the tribe Spermacoceae s.s. based on the uni-ovulate ovary locules and pluri-aperturate pollen grains.

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2008
The phylogenetic utility of chloroplast (atpB-rbcL, petD, rps16, trnL-F) and nuclear (ETS, ITS) DNA regions was investigated for the tribe Spermacoceae of the coffee family (Rubiaceae). ITS was, despite often raised cautions of its utility at higher taxonomic levels, shown to provide the highest number of parsimony informative characters, in ...

Lectotypification of Psyllocarpus schwackei (Spermacoceae, Rubiaceae)
Phytotaxa, 2017Psyllocarpus schwackei was described by Schumann (1898: 18), for which he cited a single collection, “in Brasiliae civitate Minas Geraes, locis arenosis in Serra do Cipo: Schwacke n, 8089, floret Aprili”. In a taxonomic revision of the genus, Kirkbride (1979) stated that the material studied by Schumann at the Botanical Museum in Berlin had been ...

Novelties in Borreria (Rubiaceae-Spermacoceae) from Brazil
Kew Bulletin, 2004sect. Pseudodiodia. Section Borreria is the largest, and is comprised of two subsections with series (Bacigalupo & Cabral 1996). According to Schumann (1888) and Andersson (1992), some species of Borreria are widespread in the New World and adventive elsewhere, but many are restricted to Brazil where the subgenus Borreria is represented by ...
