Taxonomy ''Gynochthodes jasminoides'' was first described by Allan Cunningham in 1834 as ''Morinda jasminoides''. In 2011, based on new molecular studies, the genera ''Morinda'' and '' Gynochthodes'' were redescribed, which necessitated new combinations and names in these genera. This resulted in ''Morinda jasminoides'' being assigned to the genus '' Gynochthodes'' by Sylvain Razafimandimbison and Birgitta Bremer Birgitta Bremer (born 17 January 1950), Swedish botanist and academic, is professor at Stockholm University, and director ...

Rubiaceae
The Rubiaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the coffee, madder, or bedstraw family. It consists of terrestrial trees, shrubs, lianas, or herbs that are recognizable by simple, opposite leaves with interpetiolar stipules and sympetalous actinomorphic flowers. The family contains about 13,500 species in about 620 genera, which makes it the fourth-largest angiosperm family. Rubiaceae has a cosmopolitan distribution; however, the largest species diversity is concentrated in the tropics and subtropics. Economically important genera include '' Coffea'', the source of coffee, '' Cinchona'', the source of the antimalarial alkaloid quinine, ornamental cultivars (''e.g.'', '' Gardenia'', '' Ixora'', '' Pentas''), and historically some dye plants (''e.g.'', '' Rubia''). Description The Rubiaceae are morphologically easily recognizable as a coherent group by a combination of characters: opposite or whorled leaves that are simple and entire, interpetiolar sti ...

Flora Of Victoria (Australia)
Flora (: floras or florae) is all the plant life present in a particular region or time, generally the naturally occurring ( indigenous) native plants.

Historically, the plant kingdom encompassed all living things that were not animals, and included algae and fungi; however, all curr ...s, flowers, and fertility in Roman mythology.
