| Summary: | <br />The tribe Alberteae of Rubiaceae consists of genera like Cremaspora<br />Benth., Polysphaeria Hook, f., Belonophora Hook, f., Aulacocalyx Hook, f.,<br />Rhabdostigma Hook, f., Alberta E. Mey., Nematostylis Hook f. and Octotropis<br />Bedd. All the above mentioned genera are natives of Africa and Mada-<br />gascar except Octotropis Bedd. which is a monotypic Indian genus, described<br />from Travancore Hills. A new genus, Pubistylus Thoth. from the Andaman<br />Islands is now added to this tribe. It is interesting to point out that there<br />is no representative genus of this tribe in Malaysia whose flora has greatly<br />influenced the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. |
