A synopsis of the genus Amischotolype (Commelinaceae) in India with one new record, A. monosperma (C.B. Clarke) I.M. Turner from Andaman & Nicobar Islands and lectotypification of A. hookeri (Hassk.) H. Hara.

A synopsis of the genus Amischotolype in India is presented. A. monosperma (C.B. Clarke) I.M. Turner (Commelinaceae), collected from the Campbell Bay Biosphere Reserve, Nicobar Islands is reported here as a new addition to the flora of India. Since a type was not designated by Hasskarl while describing A. hookeri, a lectotype is designated here based on a Hooker & Thomson material from Khasia housed at L. Brief description and illustration of A. monosperma and colour photographs of all except A. dolichandra are provided. - See more at:
