Names
DEINBOLLIA borbonica Verdc. forma subcordata [family SAPINDACEAE], forma nova. a formis ceteris foliolis basi subcordatis, usque 20 × 10.5 cm. subtus molliter ferrugineo-pubescentibus differt. Typus: Tanzania, Lushoto District, Korogwe, Mombo Forest Reserve, Ngonyani 49 (K!, holo., EA, iso.)
Information
Leaflets oblong, up to 20 cm. long, 10.5 cm. wide, rounded at the apex, subcordate at the base, softly ferruginous pubescent beneath and with some sparse hairs above particularly on the midrib. Inflorescences with pale brown pubescence as in forma glabrata .
Range
DISTR. T 3 not known elsewhere (see note)
Altitude range
± 400 m.
Distribution
TANZANIA Lushoto District Korogwe, Mombo Forest Reserve, site 6, 13 Oct. 1971, Ngonyani 49!
Notes
Radlkofer was, I think, justified in establishing a forma glabrata for the East African plant, particularly as the origin of the type plant is not known – it seems impossible it could have come from Réunion. Capuron has two other forms from Madagascar, one with a glabrous ovary. Bally 1977 (Kenya, Tana River District, Garissa) has been referred to var. minor Radlk. (E.P. IV, 165: 675 (1932); type: Somalia, Baraawe [Barana], Hildebrandt 1325 (B†, holo.), described as ‘foliola minora, rigide chartacea, insigniter reticulato-venosa’ and littoral in habitat); its status is not known.Capuron has sunk Omalocarpus macrophyllus Choux (type: Madagascar, Boina, Ankarafantsika, Perrier de la Bâthie 13222 (P, holo., K!, iso.)) into D. borbonica as forma pilosula but it is much more like D. kilimandscharica and the presence of D. borbonica in Madagascar is, I think, doubtful.
