Abstract: | The generic relationship, the palynology and the infrageneric classification of the tropical Asian-Australian-Melanesian genus Adenanthera is discussed. Twelve species are recognized. Adenanthera microsperma and A. tamarindifolia are reinstated. A. kostermansii and A. marina are described as new, and A. malayana is divided in two subspecies, ssp. malayana from Malaya and Sumatra and ssp. andersonii from Borneo. All species are illustrated. |
