Andersoniodoxa

Andersoniodoxa is a small genus of flowering plants in the family Malpighiaceae, native to Costa Rica, Colombia, and northern Brazil.[2] A molecular and morphological study showed that its species, formerly included in Lophanthera, were more closely related to Spachea, requiring a new genus to be erected.[3]
