Recent floristic inventories in the Loky-Manambato region of northeastern Madagascar have highlighted the area as an important area of local endemism for plants. The new species was identified after survey of the collections for this genus in the Geneva herbarium and latter confirmed during the preparation of the treatment of Vitaceae for the “Catalogue of the Vascular Plants of Madagascar”.
