Notes
This is the only specific name in the genus of which I could not trace the type, which may be lost. A lengthwise ridged calyx I have not observed in any species of the genus; the 1-pinnate leaves and narrow leaflets seem rather characteristic. It might possibly be an extreme form of R. pinnata subsp. acuminata.
