REMARKS

Morinda trimera View in CoL is one of the two arborescent species of Morinda View in CoL that we transferred to Gynochthodes sensu Razafimandimbison et al. (2009) View in CoL based on Razafimandimbison & Bremer (unpubl. data) analyses based on combined nrETS, nrITS, rps16, and trnT-F data. The range of its flowers length also falls within that of Gynochthodes View in CoL . We consider M. lainaiensis , M. sandwicensis View in CoL , and M. waikapuensis View in CoL to be synonyms of M. trimera View in CoL and hereby provide their synonymies in order to avoid unnecessary combinations in Gynochthodes View in CoL .
