Huberantha, a replacement name for Hubera (Annonaceae: Malmeoideae: Miliuseae)- Tanawat Chaowasku, David M. Johnson, Raymond W. J. M. van der Ham & Lars W. Chatrou- KEW BULLETIN (2015) 70: 23-

Summary. A replacement generic name, Huberantha Chaowasku, is proposed for the recently described genus Hubera Chaowasku segregated from Polyalthia Blume because the name Hubera has been recommended to be treated as a later homonym of Huberia DC. (Melastomataceae) by the nomenclature committee for vascular plants. Consequently, new combinations of twenty-seven species presently recognised are made under Huberantha.

Species in India:

Huberantha cerasoides (Roxb.) Chaowasku, comb. nov. Syn. Uvaria cerasoides Roxb.

Huberantha jenkinsii (Hook. f. & Thomson) Chaowasku, comb. nov. syn. Guatteria jenkinsii Hook. f. & Thomson

Huberantha korinti (Dunal) Chaowasku, comb. nov. Syn. Guatteria korinti Dunal

Hubera senjiana is now Huberantha senjiana (Annonaceae) – RAMACHANDRAN MURALIDHARAN, DUVURU NARASIMHAN, NATESAN BALACHANDRAN- Phtotaxa Vol 217, No 2 (2015)-

Abstract– The genus Hubera Chaowasku in Chaowasku et al. (2012) was established in accordance with strict monophyly based on a molecular phylogenetic analysis and morphological characters; the component species were previously considered members of the polyphyletic genus Polyalthia Blume s.l. (1830 : 68). Chaowasku, however, later felt that the genus name Hubera was too similar to Huberia DC (1828 : 167; Melastomataceae) and asked the nomenclature committee for vascular plants if it should be treated as a later homonym of Huberia DC. (Chaowasku 2013). His request was accepted by the nomenclature committee for vascular plants (Applequist 2014). Subsequently, Chaowasku replaced the generic name Hubera with a new name Huberantha and also made new combinations for all 27 species of that genus (Chaowasku et al. 2015). A new species that was recently published under Hubera (Muralidharan et al. 2015) is here transferred to Huberantha.

Pl. go through ‎Hubera page (‎‎Annonaceae) with images of species in efloraofindia (done by ).

If you find any mis-identification, pl. let us know.

If anybody can send images of other species of this genera (for incorporation in the website), it will be really nice. Also, if anybody is interested to take up the activity of inserting images on efloraofindia pages from efloraofindia posts, pl. let us know.
