Notes.

Acalypha diminuta was first illustrated, without description, in Baillon`s Histoire Naturelle des Plantes ( Baillon 1891). The first description of this species, based only on Baillon`s illustration, appears in Engler`s Pflanzenreich ( Pax and Hoffmann 1924). This is the only species included in Acalypha subgen. Androcephala Pax & K.Hoffm.
