A.DC., and the monotypic Elaphanthera N.Hallé, endemic to the main island of New Caledonia. Omphacomeria acerba (R.Br.) A.DC. was found to be nested in Exocarpos, while Elaphanthera baumanii (Stauffer) N.Hallé was sister to Exocarpos. Placement of Elaphanthera and Omphacomeria in an expanded Exocarpos is proposed on the basis of molecular data, supported by morphology. A new combination, Exocarpos acerbus (R.Br.) Lepschi, comb nov., is provided to accommodate Omphacomeria acerba in Exocarpos. specialized NOUVELLE CALEDONIE AUSTRALIE 076BOTA01 42 9-14 2023 0077-1813 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010087998 0077-1813 [F B010087998] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010087998 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/2024-09/010087998.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2024-09-13 2024-09-27 fdi:010087998 fre
