Inflorescence 2–17-flowered in highly ramified branches, flagelliflorous, inflorescence branches 10–100 cm long or shortened branches ca 4.5 cm long, rarely one-flowered, terminal, bracts caducous, 2.0–7.4 × 0.3–2.8 cm. Flowers with pedicel 2–12 mm long, flower buds 2–8 × 1–2.5 mm, cylindrical with obtuse apex, covered in trichomes. Sepals completely connate, calyx cupuliform, apex truncate, 1.5–4 × 1–4 mm, glabrescent. Petals linear, white, 5–11.5 mm long, densely covered in trichomes, stamens 6, 3–4 × 0.5 mm, carpels 3, 2.5–4 × 0.5 mm. Monocarps 1–3, ellipsoid to narrowly ellipsoid, 8–30 × 2–5 mm, glabrous, green in vivo, sessile, calyx persistent. Seeds 1–2, ellipsoid, 10 × 4–5 mm ( Maas et al. 1986).

Phenology

Flowering from February to December, fruiting from May to October.

Preliminary conservation status

Hornschuchia polyantha has an EOO of 3095 km 2 and an AOO of 48 km 2, its habitat is endangered due to deforestation ( Landau et al. 2008). The conservation status is categorized as Endangered, EN B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii), according to IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria ( IUCN 2012).

Notes

The description of H. polyantha has been updated ( Johnson & Murray 1995) in plant habit and size, leaf morphology, flower morphology and dimensions, and fruit dimensions. Hornschuchia polyantha is similar to H. myrtillus , see the note under the latter to differentiate the two species.
