Basionym.

Madang province: Madang subprovince [district], cleared area utilized as a gravel pit on north side of Madang Usino Highway on banks of Gogol River, 145 37 E, 05 15 S, 100 m alt., 25 April 1979, S.H.

Notes.

The arrangement of leaflets for which this species is named (i.e. the basal-most pair of leaflets inserted just above petiole and separated from terminal pair of leaflets by a relatively long rachis) is unusual amongst the species that were formerly included in Maniltoa ; however some species of Cynometra have a similar arrangement (e.g. Cynometra sakalava Du Puy & R.Rabev from Madagascar).
