Hopeabromidia

Hopeabromidia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Malpighiaceae. It is native to South America, primarily found in the Amazon basin. The genus was described by Ludwig Adolph Timotheus Radlkofer in 1876. Plants in this genus are typically trees or shrubs. Their leaves are simple, opposite, and often have a leathery texture. The flowers are usually small and yellow, growing in clusters. They are hermaphroditic and have five petals and ten stamens. The fruit is a samara, a winged seed that aids in wind dispersal.

Species within Hopeabromidia are characterized by their distinctive fruit structure and their specific ecological niche. They often grow in humid tropical forests. The exact number of species within the genus can vary depending on taxonomic interpretations, but it is generally considered to be a small genus. Research on Hopeabromidia is ongoing, focusing on its evolutionary relationships within the Malpighiaceae family and its ecological role in its native habitat. Due to its limited geographic distribution, conservation status of individual species may be a concern, though specific assessments are not widely published.
