Euphorbia species from the flora Zambesiaca Area: XIII a new species from the Chimanimani mountains
1990
Leach, L.C. (Karoo Botanical Garden, Worcester (South Africa))
A distinctive new, succulent, spiny euphorbia from Zimbabwe, which belongs in the E. griseola-E. richardsiae relationship, is described. Known since 1950 and recognized as being undescribed, it was uncertain even to which group it belonged until good flowering and fruiting material became available in June 1988, so enabling the description to be completed. Remarkable both for the dark red colour of the inflorescence and its heavily rugose involucral glands, E. rugosi-flora is probably endemic to the Chimanimani Mountains
