''Metaplexis'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Apocynaceae, first described as a genus in 1810. As presently conceived, it contains two known species, both native to east Asia.〔〔(Flora of China Vol. 16 Page 204 萝藦属 luo mo shu ''Metaplexis'' R. Brown, Mem. Wern. Nat. Hist. Soc. 1: 48. 1810. )〕 ==Description== ''Metaplexis'' plants are vines that reach 8 m high; are rhizomatous and have underground woody organs that constitute a pattern. Leaf-blades are herbaceous, about 5–10 cm long and 4.6 cm wide, ovate, basally cordate, acute apex attenuated, adaxial glabrous and are abaxially sparsely pubescent.〔 The inflorescences are extra-axillary, solitary, almost as long as the adjacent leaves. The plants have 6-20 flowers, simple, with the peduncle longer than the pedicels which are practically obsolete and slightly pubescent on the whole surface.〔 ;Species〔(The Plant List, ''Metaplexis'' )〕 # ''Metaplexis hemsleyana'' Oliv. - China (Guangxi, Guizhou, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan) # ''Metaplexis japonica'' Makino - widespread across much of China; also Korea, Japan, Russian Far East ;formerly included〔 # ''Metaplexis cavaleriei'', syn of ''Marsdenia cavaleriei'' # ''Metaplexis fimbriata'', syn of ''Matelea cumanensis'' 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「Metaplexis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
