Names
Dalechampia volubilis E. Mey. [family EUPHORBIACEAE], in Drège, Zwei Pflanzengeogr. Dokum.: 158, 177 (1843), nomen subnud; in Baill., Étud. Gén. Euphorb.: 487 (1858), nomen tantum. —Prain in F.C. 5, 2: 499 (1920). Type from South Africa (KwaZulu-Natal). Dalechampia capensis Sond. [family EUPHORBIACEAE], in Linnaea 23: 106 (1850), pro parte, non Spreng. f. Dalechampia natalensis Müll. Arg. [family EUPHORBIACEAE], in De Candolle, Prodr. 15, 2: 1243 (1866). Dalechampia scandens var. natalensis Müll. Arg. Pax & K. Hoffm. [family EUPHORBIACEAE], in Engler, Pflanzenr. [IV, fam. 147, xii] 68: 35 (1919). —Engler, Pflanzenw. Afrikas (Veg. Erde 9) 3, 2: 110 (1921). Type from South Africa (KwaZulu-Natal).
Information
Leaves subentire, commonly glabrous or subglabrous, or if pubescent, then only along the midrib and main nerves.
Habitat
In coastal forest margins and dune thickets, also in riverine forest, on dry sandy soil
Altitude range
sea-level to 200 m. 200 0
Distribution
Mozambique M Maputo (Lourenço Marques), Catembe, fr. 18.iv.1920, Borle 954 (COI; K; PRE; SRGH).Mozambique GI Inharrime, Ponta Zavora, fr. 4.iv.1959, Barbosa & Lemos in Barbosa 8506 (COI; K; LISC).
Distribution (external)
South Africa (KwaZulu-Natal)
Notes
Some material presents an intermediate indumentum state between this and the preceding variety, thus Torre 1602 (COI; LISC) and 7511 (LISC), both from Manjacaze, Mozambique (GI), and Balsinhas 1282 (COI) from Matutuíne, Salamanga, Mozambique (M), have the leaves more or less pubescent beneath, but the leaf margins are subentire.Furthermore, in Groenendijk & Dungo 1572 (LMU), fr. 12.xii.1984, from Inhaca Island, the leaf margins are shallowly serrate, whereas the leaves are almost glabrous beneath.
