Status: this genus has not yet been assessed for species diversity and endemism

- Species in Fl. Madag: 2 (1 endemic, 1 indigenous non-endemic)

Note: We provisionally accept Berg's broad concept of a single species in Madagascar which also occurs in many parts of Africa. However, we beleive that further investigation is needed.
