Editorial Note

The systematics of Phyllanthaceae – only recently segregated from Euphorbiaceae s.l. – have undergone significant revision over the last three decades. In particular, tribe Poranthereae (in subfamily Phyllanthoideae) has been comprehensively reconceived on the basis of work by Vorontsova and collaborators (Vorontsova et al. 2007, Vorontsova & Hoffmann 2008). As a result, the two cultivated species treated by Bean under this name have been referred to other genera (Phyllanthopsis and Leptopus). Other species from this genus are cultivated in our area, and a full, revised treatment will be provided when funding is available.
