038D87A6FF89FFC7FC93F99FE5DC2A25.taxon	description	Note — Species of section Callidisci were originally placed by Brunel (1987) in subgenus Phyllanthus section Anthophyllus together with other palaeotropical subsections and recognized by the fringed disc in the pistillate flowers. As this group has recently been shown to be polyphyletic (Kathriarachchi et al. 2006) and after revision were split into a few new subgenera (Ralimanana et al. 2013), it seems necessary also to transfer Brunel’s subsections. All other palaeotropical species of subgenus Phyllanthus were placed in subgenus Afroswartziani and were distinguished from the neotropical subgenus Swartziani by their unisexual inflorescences (Ralimanana et al. 2013). This is in agreement with species of subsection Callidisci, which is transferred here and raised to sectional level to accommodate the separation from section Anthophyllus.	en	Bouman, R.

038D87A6FF88FFC6FC93FED0E2DA2103.taxon	description	Note — In his treatment of the genus Phyllanthus for De Candolle, Müller (1866) reduced the genus Glochidion to a few sections within Phyllanthus. Phyllanthus oxycarpus Müll. Arg. was first described by Müller (1866) and placed in section Euglochidion Müll. Arg. as it closely resembled P. subscandens (Zoll. & Moritzi) Müll. Arg. (a synonym of G. zeylanicum (Gaertn.) A. Juss.). Other species first published in section Euglochidion by Müller were all transferred to the genus by other authors (e. g., Boerlage 1900, Smith 1910), but we were unable to find a transfer for G. oxycarpum. The description lists no nectar disc, a 5 - or 6 - locular ovary with columnar style, which are all typical features for the genus Glochidion and therefore this species is transferred here.	en	Bouman, R.

038D87A6FF88FFC6FFC9FF36E06F2001.taxon	description	Note — Species in the palaeotropical section Odontadenii also have unisexual inflorescences and are therefore more suited to be placed in subgenus Afroswartziani than the neotropical subgenus Swartziani. The species are distinguished form other sections by their winged plagiotropic branchlets (Brunel & Roux 1981).	en	Bouman, R. W., Keβler, P. J. A., Telford, I. R. H., Bruhl, J. J., Welzen, P.

038D87A6FF88FFC6FFC9FDE6E3612790.taxon	description	Glochidion J. R. Forst. & G. Forst. sect. Chorizogynium Müll. Arg. (1863) 58, 59. — Lectotype (designated by Webster 1986): Phyllanthus macrochorion Baill. Phyllanthus L. sect. Heteroglochidion Müll. Arg. (1866) 319. — Type: Phyllanthus baladensis Baill. Phyllanthus L. sect. Scleroglochidion Müll. Arg. (1866) 317. — Type: Phyllanthus myrianthus Müll. Arg. Note — Section Scleroglochidion was previously placed in synonymy by Webster (1986) who expanded the description of Eleuterhogynium to include also Phyllanthus species with 3 free filaments. Section Heteroglochidion was defined by Müller on its biseriate sepals, which is a common character for subgenus Gomphidium. All of these sections are characterized by a rudimentary to absent nectar disc (see Müller 1866). Lobreau-Callen et al. (1988) in a palynological study, showed that the pollen of these groups showed a continuous variation in pollen characters and were difficult to differentiate. The lack of distinguishing floral and vegetative characters and the overlap in palynological characters leads us to the decision to combine the above sections in one subsection Eleutherogynium, with as main character the absent nectar disc to distinguish it from other species within section Adenoglochidion.	en	Bouman, R.

038D87A6FF88FFC6FFC9F995E40B2366.taxon	description	Phyllanthus L. sect. Phyllocalyx Baill. (1862) 236 (nom. illeg., non Phyllocalyx A. Rich., 1847). — Glochidion J. R. Forst. & G. Forst. sect. Physoglochidion Müll. Arg. (1863) 58, 71. — Lectotype (designated here by R. W. Bouman, but see Webster (2001) manuscript synopsis of Gomphidium): Phyllanthus faguetii Baill. Note — Phyllanthus section Physoglochidion (Müll. Arg.) Müll. Arg. is characterized by 3 free stamens, 6 sepals in two whorls and a calyx that becomes saccate in fruit. Apart from the saccate calyx, these characters also occur in section Gomphidium and within section Physoglochidion and the saccate calyx shows a continuous variation between species (Lobreau-Callen et al. 1988). Since these groups can also not be distinguished on palynological data we opt to reduce section Physoglochidion to a subsection level and place it with section Gomphidium.
