| Summary: | "The genus Amicia comprises seven species distributed disjunctly at mid-elevations across the neotropics with one species in Mexico and six endemic restricted to ranges in the Central Andes of South America. Phylogenic analyses of nuclear ribosomal and plastid DNA sequences show Amicia to be monophyletic and confirm its placement in the predominantly South American Adesmia clade of the dalbergioid legums ... A taxonomic account including an indentification key, distribution maps, and illustrations for all species, is presented. A new subspecies of Amicia micrantha Harms, Amicia mircantha subsp. tarijensis Särkinen, is described from southern Bolivia"--Page 1. |
