Statut biogéographique : D'après Molino
et al. (Adansonia, 44(26):
382. 13/12/2022, sub
Aspidosperma sp. A): "Six collections at CAY were identified in 2003 by J.F.
Morales as
A. spruceanum Benth. ex Müll.Arg. However, the long
petioles and abaxially glabrous, shiny leaves of the specimens do not
agree with the original diagnosis and type of
A. spruceanum, which
has very short petioles and leaves bearing a silvery indument abaxially.
None of the collections identified as
A. spruceanum at CAY,
whether by J.F. Morales or anyone else, displays this combination
of characters."
