Pseudocayratia


Pseudocayratia is a genus of Asian vine plants in the family Vitaceae. As its name suggests, it was split from the previously configured genus Cayratia, which was found not to be monophyletic: for example, Pseudocayratia oligocarpa, from central China to Vietnam, was distinct from Cayratia pedata. Species have been recorded from central-southern China, Japan, the Ryukyu Islands, Taiwan and Vietnam.
