''Anthonotha'' is a genus within the subfamily of Caesalpinioideae of the plant family Fabaceae/Leguminosae. ==Taxonomic history== The first species of the genus was described in 1806 by Palisot de Beauvois〔 Palisot de Beauvois A.M.F.J. (1806) Flore d’Oware et de Benin en Afrique, I. Paris, Fain et Compagnie.〕 based on a specimen collected in West Africa and named ''Anthonotha macrophylla'' P.Beauv.. The genus was not recognized and in 1865〔 Baillon H. (1865) Études sur l’Herbier du Gabon du Musée des Colonies Françaises. Adansonia 6: 177–230.〕 Baillon transferred it to the South American genus Vouapa described by Aublet in 1775. Vouapa also became synonym as the conserved name of Macrolobium was favored for the genus described by Schreber in 1789. Most species now recognized within Anthonotha were originally described within the genus Macrolobium. The species ''Anthonotha macrophylla'' continued under the illegitimate name ''Macrolobium palisotii'' described by Bentham in 1865.〔Bentham G. (1865) Description of some new genera and species of tropical Leguminosae. Transactions of the Linnean Society of London. Series 2, Botany 25: 297–320, tab. 36–43.〕 This was corrected by Macbride in 1919〔Macbride J.F. (1919), Notes on certain Leguminosae. Contributions from the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University. New Series 59: 1–27.〕 by publishing the correct name M. macrophyllum (P.Beauv.) Macbride. In 1955〔Léonard J. (1955) Notulae Systematicae XVII. Les genres Anthonotha P.Beauv. et Pellegrineodendron J.Léonard en Afrique Tropicale (Caesalpiniaceae). Bulletin du Jardin Botanique de l’État, Bruxelles 25: 201–203〕 J.Léonard reinstalled Anthonotha for the rest of the African Macrolobium species, after several other species had been transferred to his newly described genera Gilbertiodendron, Paramacrolobium and Pellegrineodendron (Breteler 2006). Léonard (1957,〔Léonard J. (1957) Genera des Cynometreae et des Amherstieae africaines (Léguminosae-Caesalpinioideae). Essai de blastogenie appliqué à la systématique. Mémoires de l’Académie Royale de Sciences, Lettres et Beaux-Arts de Belgique. Classe des Sciences (octavo ) 30 (2): 1–314.〕 1996〔Léonard J. (1996) Les délimitations des genres chez les Caesalpinioideae africaines (Detarieae et Amherstieae) (1957–1994), in Van der Maesen L.J.G. , Van der Burgt X.M. & Medenbach de Rooy J.M. (eds) The biodiversity of African Plants: 443–455. Dordrecht, Boston, London, Kluwer, Academic Publishers.〕) subclassified the reinstalled Anthonotha with 26 species into five sections. Anthonotha section Anthonotha became the genus Anthonotha in a new, narrow sense (Aubréville & Pellegrin,〔Aubréville A., Pellegrin F. (1958) De quelques Césalpiniées africaines. Bulletin de la Société Botanique de France 104: 495–498.〕 in Aubréville 1959: 280). The species of the other four sections of Anthonotha are, all but two species (Breteler 2006〔Breteler F.J. (2006) Novitates Gabonenses 56. Two Anthonotha species from Gabon transferred to Englerodendron (Fabaceae, Caesalpinioideae). Adansonia, sér. 3, 28 (1): 105–111.〕), placed in the genus Isomacrolobium by Breteler in 2008.〔Breteler F.J. (2008) Anthonotha and Isomacrolobium (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae): two distinct genera. Systematics and Geography of Plants 78: 137–144.)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthonotha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
