Revision of Pittosporum (Pittosporaceae) in Australia

Following a phylogenetic analysis using morphology, Pittosporum is here monographed and recircumscribed as a monophyletic genus, by including the small genus Citriobatus and by excluding a new genus, described in the accompanying paper as Auranticarpa . Within Australia and its associated territories, 20 species are now recognised in Pittosporum , including the four from Citriobatus , three of which are given new combinations ( P. spinescens , P. lancifolium and P. multiflorum ). Citriobatus linearis requires a new name ( P. viscidum ). Four species are reinstated or confirmed at species level ( P. angustifolium , P. ligustrifolium , P. nativitatis and P. wingii ), and P. trilobum is described for the first time.
