Machaonia erythrocarpa is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae, native from Mexico through Central America to Panama. [1] It was first described by Paul Carpenter Standley in 1940 as Allenanthus erythrocarpus. [2] Allenanthus hondurensis is a synonym of one of its subspecies. [3]

Subspecies

Three subspecies are recognized: [1]

  • Machaonia erythrocarpa subsp. erythrocarpa – Central America [4]
  • Machaonia erythrocarpa subsp. hondurensis (Standl.) Borhidi, syn. Allenanthus hondurensis Standl. – Mexico (Oaxaca, Chiapas) to Nicaragua [3]
  • Machaonia erythrocarpa subsp. parvifolia (L.O.Williams) Borhidi – Mexico [5]

Conservation

Allenanthus hondurensis was assessed as " vulnerable" in the 1998 IUCN Red List, where it is said to be native only to Honduras and Mexico. [6] As of February 2023, A. hondurensis was regarded as a synonym of Machaonia erythrocarpa subsp. hondurensis, which has a wider distribution, including El Salvador and Guatemala. [3]
