Systematics of Asterostigma Fisch. & C.A.Mey (Araceae)
Project summary:
Field expeditions are of paramount importance within systematic surveys, especially for groups that are rarely collected and with morphological characteristics that are lost after herborization. This study will serve to remedy this gap for the Asterostigma genus, strengthening morphological knowledge and opening doors for projects focused on the group evolution.
