Abstract

The African species of Crudia (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae) are revised. Ten species, including two new ones, are recognized. The African species of the genus are confined to the Guineo-Congolian region. A key to the species is presented. To facilitate its use, the stipules of all species are illustrated. The fruits, as far as known, are illustrated as well and the distribution maps of all taxa are added
