Stapfiella lucida ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

Stapfiella lucida is a shrub native to Burundi, Congo, Rwana, and Zaïre.[1] It reaches heights of 1.5 – 3 meters high, shiny 4–5 cm leaves that cluster at the top of branches, yellowish white homostylous flowers, and chestnut colored seeds.[2][3][4]

Varieties

There are currently two accepted varieties of S. lucida, var. lucida and var. pubescens (Verdc.).[5]

Variety pubescens is restricted to the wet tropics of Burundi.[6] It differs from var. lucida as it has less acuminate capsule and more densely pubescent capsule.[7] Prior to the discovery of var. pubescens, S. lucida had not been documented in Burundi.[7] Var. pubescens is endangered.[8]
