Type. Ghana - Eastern Region - C. Vigne FH1877 (holotype: K! (K000041224), sheet here designated; isotypes: K! (K000041225, K000041226)), Amentia; 6°13'N , 1°10'W ; alt. 160 m; Mar. 1930. Description. Male inflorescences axillary or terminal (more rarely borne on trunk). Petals 7-10 mm long, 5-9 mm wide, length:width ratio 1.1-1.4, broadly ovate, free. Female inflorescences axillary or terminal (rarely borne on trunk). Sepals 1-3 mm long, 2-4 mm wide. Petals 10-22 mm long, 9-17 mm wide, length:width ratio 1.1-1.4, broadly ovate, free. Female flowers: carpels 10 to 20, 2-4 mm long, 1-1.1 mm wide. Distribution. Endemic to Upper Guinean Domain of the Guineo-Congolian Region: Ghana. Habitat and ecology. Lowland mature or secondary rain forests. Altitude: 160-800 m asl. Notes. Up. guineensis var. globiflora differs from the type variety in having free petals (vs. fused at base over 30-50% of their length) and fewer carpels (10-20 carpels vs. 20-50 carpels). The male flowers have also smaller petals (7-10 mm long and 5-9 mm wide vs. 8-17 mm long and 9-17 mm wide). Additional specimens examined. Ghana - Ashanti Region • J.E.
