Abstract
Barleria fulvostellata C. B. Clarke, a highly variable species of dry miombo (Brachystegia) woodland in eastern Africa, is studied in detail in preparation for the treatment of the Acanthaceae in the Flora of Tropical East Africa and Flora Zambesiaca. Four geographically allopatric subspecies are recognised for the first time, and a fifth taxon within the complex is highlighted but needs more material prior to full recognition. The affinities of B. fulvostellata are considered and the conservation status of each subspecies is assessed.
