E. Asia to West Malesia. The characters defining these genera are scrutinized and it is found that only one genus can be distinguished. The affinity of Peliosanthes, which is maintained in Liliaceae, is discussed and it is concluded that it should be arranged in the same tribe as Ophiopogon and Liriope.

| Herbs, usually glabrous, with perennial underground stems (corms, bulbs, tubers, or rhizomes) in all Mal. spp. Aerial stems usually herbaceous and annual, erect or climbing. Leaves simple, caespitose and basal, sometimes distichous, if cauline usually alternate, generally linear to lanceolate or oblanceolate especially when basal, but sometimes shorter and broader (to ovate) when cauline, usually sessile (in Asparagus and Petrosavia reduced to non-photosynthetic scales), usually with parallel venation. Stipules 0. Inflorescence terminal or axillary, usually racemose (less often at least partly umbellate) or flowers solitary, usually bracteate. Flowers bisexual (except, in Mal., Asparagus cochinchinensis and Astelia alpina), usually actinomorphic. Perianth... |
