EtymologyThe epithet, a noun in apposition, is the generic name of a clade of mangrove trees, several species of which occur in New Caledonia, particularly in near coastal areas. The type series was collected, with much mosquito-induced blood loss to the authors, on branches within the mangroves just south of Oundjo on the west coast of the Province Nord.
