Croton antisyphiliticus is a subshrub that can be recognized by its irregularly serrate leaves with sessile nectary glands along the leaf margin. Due to its wide geographic distribution and its occurrence in different types of habitats, the species has a great morphological variability throughout its range, especially in vegetative characteristics like leaf shape and indumentum density. The species belongs to sect. Geiseleria subsect. Ocalia ( Klotzsch 1841: 195) van Ee & Berry (2021: 136) ( Riina et al. 2021).
Distribution and habitat:— It occurs in Bolivia, Paraguay and Brazil (AM, DF, GO, MG, MT, PR, SC, SP, TO) ( Sodré et al. 2019, Riina et al. 2021). Plants growing in open vegetation and ‘cerrado’, between 700 and 960 m elevation. ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ).
