Systematics of the Neotropical genus Cenostigma Tul. (Leguminosae: Caesalpinioideae:
Caesalpinieae)
Project summary:
This project provides an integrative taxonomic revision of the Neotropical genus Cenostigma (Leguminosae), grounded on extensive herbarium research and targeted fieldwork. By revising type material, documenting poorly known taxa, and generating high-quality collections and data, it establishes the essential foundation for future systematic, phylogenomic, and conservation studies.
