Notes.
Hiraea comprises 81 currently accepted species (43 threatened species; Suppl. material 1) of scandent shrubs or lianas endemic to rainforests from Mexico (North America) to Argentina (South America) but absent in the Antilles (POWO 2024). There is no updated identification key for all species of Hiraea, but for regional treatments, see Anderson (1981) for the Guyana Highland, Almeida et al. (2020) for Brazil, and Pool (in prep.) for Mesoamerica.
