摘要
A taxonomic revision of Madagascan Gardenia is presented, to include four species and two subspecies. Three species, Gardenia sambiranensis Rakoton. & A. P. Davis, G. manongarivenis Rakoton. & A. P. Davis, G. brevicalyx Rakoton. & A. P. Davis and one subspecies, G. rutenbergiana subsp. australis Rakoton. & A. P. Davis, are described as new to science. Identification keys, descriptions, distribution maps, illustrations, species notes ( distribution, habitat and ecology, phenology), and conservation assessments are provided. Madagascan Gardenia species are restricted to western Madagascar, in seasonally dry and sub-humid vegetation types. At least two species demonstrate broad ecological and anthropogenic tolerance, which may make them suitable for vegetation restoration projects in western Madagascar.
