T. Hunziker 2001). C. Carrizo García et al. (2018) concluded that Nectouxia and Salpichroa should be combined into a single genus. In that case Nectouxia would have priority, requiring name changes for over 20 Salpichroa species. A proposal is under consideration to conserve the name Salpichroa over Nectouxia (G. E. Barboza et al. 2016).</p><!-- --><p>Stems of Nectouxia exhibit sympodial growth. The branching from the nodes of the first sympodium is poorly to very well developed.</p> |tables= |references= }}<!-- --><!-- -->{{#Taxon: name=Nectouxia |author=Ellen A.
