Moussonia (plant)
''Moussonia'' is a genus of plants in the family Gesneriaceae. Its native range stretches from Mexico to Central America. It is found in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico and Panamá. Description They are herbaceous plants, or shrubs. It has an erect, branched stem, without scaly rhizomes. The leaves are arranged in the opposite way. The inflorescences are axillary, in cyme (botany), cymes or solitary flowers. The corolla (flower), corolla is red, orange or yellow, in the form of a long tube, which is broader in the centre. With the base of the extremities and narrow throat. The fruit (or seed capsule) is a dry, ovoid or ellipsoidal bivalve capsule. Taxonomy It was previously included in the genus ''Kohleria'', but with a different chromosomal number 2n=11, the ring-shaped nectary and without rhizomes. The molecular results support the separation of this genus. The genus name of ''Moussonia'' is in honour of Albert Mousson (1805–1890), a physicist and a ma ...

Gesneriaceae
Gesneriaceae, the gesneriad family, is a family of flowering plants consisting of about 152 genera and ca. 3,540 species in the tropics and subtropics of the Old World (almost all Didymocarpoideae) and the New World (most Gesnerioideae), with a very small number extending to temperate areas. Many species have colorful and showy flowers and are cultivated as ornamental plants. Etymology The family name is based on the genus ''Gesneria'', which honours Swiss naturalist and humanist Conrad Gessner. Description Most species are herbaceous perennials or subshrubs but a few are woody shrubs or small trees. The phyllotaxy is usually opposite and decussate, but leaves have a spiral or alternate arrangement in some groups. As with other members of the Lamiales the flowers have a (usually) zygomorphic corolla whose petals are fused into a tube and there is no one character that separates a gesneriad from any other member of Lamiales. Gesneriads differ from related families of the ...
