REMARKS

The type collection is from the SE part of Madagascar, near Fort Dauphin , and I have seen several recent collections from the same region. It can be recognized by its smooth, glabrous leaves with weakly tripliveined venation. Kostermans (1958) also included collections from the Sambava region in the NE in this species. Recent collections from the area around the Baie d’Antongil differ from typical C. subtriplinervia in having larger leaves and inflorescences and their status needs to be reexamined .
