Indigenous species of Senegalia recognised in publications encompassing the whole of China from late 19th century to the present.
| Publication | No. sp. (Senegalia/Acacia sens. lat.)a | Senegalia taxa included in publicationb | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forbes and Hemsley (1887) | 1/3 | S. rugata [A. concinna] | |
| Huang (1985) | 5/15 | S. delavayi [A. delavayi], A. intsia, A. pennata, S. rugata & S. prominens [A. sinuata], S. yunnanensis [A. yunnanensis]. | It is not known what species were included by Huang (1985) under the names Acacia intsia & A. pennata. The entity described as A. sinuata probably included elements of S. prominens and S. rugata. |
| Wu (1988) | 8/18 | S. caesia [A. caesia], S. delavayi [A. delavayi], S. megaladena [A. megaladena], A. pennata, S. pruinescens [A. pruinescens], S. rugata & S. prominens [A. sinuata], S. teniana [A. teniana], S. yunnanensis [A. yunnanensis]. | Re A. pennata & A. sinuata: see notes above. |
| Sun and Chen (1990) | 11/14 | S. caesia [A. caesia], S. rugata [A. concinna], S. delavayi [A. delavayi var. delavayi], S. kunmingensis [A. delavayi var. kunmingensis], S. hainanensis & S. stipitata [A. hainanensis], S. garrettii [A. megaladena var. garrettii], S. megaladena var. megaladena [A. megaladena var. megaladena], S. clandestina, S. pennata subsp. insuavis & S. kerrii [A. pennata], S. pruinescens [A. pruinescens, two vars.], S. teniana [A. teniana], S. tonkinensis [A. tonkinensis], S. andamanica & S. prominens [A. vietnamensis], S. yunnanensis [A. yunnanensis]. | Acacia hainanensis included elements of S. hainanensis & S. stipitata. Acacia pennata included elements of S. clandestinaS. kerrii& S. pennata subsp. insuavis. Acacia vietnamensis (does not occur in China) included elements of S. andamanica, S. prominens & S. vietnamensis, |
| Wu and Nielsen (2010) | 11/20 | S. caesia [A. caesia], S. rugata [A. concinna], S. delavayi [A. delavayi var. delavayi], S. kunmingensis [A. delavayi var. kunmingensis], S. garrettii [A. megaladena var. garrettii], S. megaladena var. megaladena [A. megaladena var. megaladena], S. hainanensis [A. pennata subsp. hainanensis], S. kerrii [A. pennata subsp. kerrii], S. pruinescens [A. pruinescens], S. teniana [A. teniana], S. tonkinensis [A. tonkinensis], A. vietnamensis, S. yunnanensis [A. yunnanensis]. | The description of A. vietnamensis (= S. vietnamensis) was largely based on the protologue; this species does not occur in China. Wu and Nielsen (2010) regarded A. catechu (=S. catechu) as native in Yunnan, but we consider it introduced. |
| Maslin (2015) | 10/15 | S. caesia, S. delavayi, S. garrettii [S. megaladena var. garrettii], S. hainanensis [S. pennata subsp. hainanensis], S. kerrii [S. pennata subsp. kerrii], S. kunmingensis [S. delavayi var. kunmingensis], S. megaladena var. megaladena, S. pruinescens, S. rugata, S. teniana, S. tonkinensis, S. yunnanensis. | In this publication S. catechu was regarded as native to China, following Wu and Nielsen (2010); see note above. |
| Zhu et al. (2015) | 11/25 | S. caesia, S. delavayi [S. delavayi var. delavayi], S. garrettii [S. megaladena var. garrettii], S. hainanensis, S. kunmingensis [S. delavayi var. kunmingensis], S. megaladena var. megaladena, S. pennata, S. pruinescens [S. pruinescens var. pruinescens & var. luchunensis], S. rugata, S. teniana, S. tonkinensis, S. vietnamensis, S. yunnanensis. | Re S. pennata & S. vietnamensis: see notes above. Two varieties were recognised for S. pruinescens, but var. luchunensis is now not recognised. |
| Maslin et al. (the current paper) | 21/36 | S. andamanica, S. caesia, S. clandestina, S. delavayi, S. garrettii, S. guangdongensis, S. hainanensis, S. kerrii, S. kunmingensis, S. macrocephala, S. megaladena var. megaladena & var. indochinensis, S. obliqua, S. obliquaS. orientalis, S. pennata subsp. insuavis, S. prominens, S. pruinescens, S. rugata, S. stipitata, S. teniana, S. tonkinensis, S. yunnanensis. |
