Malpighiaceae

Genera 72 Accepted species 1,501 Documented here 89 Coverage 6%

We document 89 of the 1,501 accepted species in Malpighiaceae. The rest are listed, with their authorities and their identifiers, inside their genus. They have no page of their own because we could not find three openly licensed photographs of them, and a page without evidence is not a page we are willing to publish.
