Mezcala – a new segregate genus of mimosoid legume (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae, mimosoid clade) narrowly endemic to the Balsas Depression in Mexico

Recent results have demonstrated that the genus Desmanthus is non-monophyletic because the genus Kanaloa is nested within it, with a single species, Desmanthusbalsensis placed as sister to the clade comprising Kanaloa plus the remaining species of Desmanthus. Here we transfer D.balsensis to a new se...

description Recent results have demonstrated that the genus Desmanthus is non-monophyletic because the genus Kanaloa is nested within it, with a single species, Desmanthusbalsensis placed as sister to the clade comprising Kanaloa plus the remaining species of Desmanthus. Here we transfer D.balsensis to a new segregate genus Mezcala, discuss the morphological features supporting this new genus, present a key to distinguish Mezcala from closely related genera in the Leucaena subclade, and provide a distribution map of M.balsensis.
