Meyna
''Meyna'' is a genus of flowering plants in the Family (biology), family Rubiaceae. Distribution The genus is found in tropical Asia, except for ''Meyna tetraphylla'' that occurs in northeastern tropical Africa and the Comoros. Taxonomy Based on morphology, ''Meyna'' has been suggested as likely candidate for inclusion in the ''Canthium'' subgenus ''Canthium''. In 2004, a molecular phylogenetic Research, study showed that ''Meyna tetraphylla'' is related to ''Canthium'' and the transfer to ''Canthium'' was suggested.

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 ...
