Description.
Genus description for Cameroon same as species.
A genus of trees or shrubs with five known species ( Gosline et al. 2018), from West and Central Africa and one from East Africa (endemic to Tanzania). In Cameroon one species is known, not endemic (previously included in Mischogyne elliotiana ).
The genus Mischogyne is easily identified when fertile by the presence of a torus, an extended receptacle, and several elongated cylindrical to ovoid carpels, which are divergent from each other.
