An overview of the infrageneric nomenclature of Ficus (Moraceae)

The infrageneric nomenclature of Ficus, the largest genus in the Moraceae, is reviewed. We call attention to three overlooked subgeneric names, F. subg. Terega Raf., F. subg. Sycomorus Raf. and F. subg. Spherosuke Raf., and four sectional names, F. sect. Cordifoliae G.Don, F. sect. Pogonotrophe (Miq...

Zusammenfassung:The infrageneric nomenclature of Ficus, the largest genus in the Moraceae, is reviewed. We call attention to three overlooked subgeneric names, F. subg. Terega Raf., F. subg. Sycomorus Raf. and F. subg. Spherosuke Raf., and four sectional names, F. sect. Cordifoliae G.Don, F. sect. Pogonotrophe (Miq.) Miq., F. sect. Platyphyllae Mildbr. & Burret and F. sect. Urostigma (Endl.) Griseb., that have priority over other long-used subgeneric and sectional names. We also effect a new combination into Ficus based on Urostigma sect. Apiosycea Miq. In addition, we designate types for 6 generic and 17 infrageneric names.
