Discussion
Species 2 (1 in the flora).
As originally circumscribed, Angadenia was a genus of nearly two dozen species, most of which were transferred by R. E. Woodson Jr. (1936) to Fernaldia Woodson, Mandevilla, Neobracea Britton, and Odontadenia Bentham. Following Woodson, the genus is here treated as comprising two species, the native A. berteroi and A. lindeniana Miers of Cuba, Hispaniola, and Jamaica.
Selected References
