Roupala
''Roupala'' is a Neotropical genus of woody shrubs and trees in the plant family Proteaceae. Its 34 species are generally found in forests from sea level to 4000 m altitude from Mexico to Argentina. Taxonomy and naming The genus was described by Jean Baptiste Christophore Fusée Aublet in 1775, its name derived from a local name ''roupale'' in French Guiana. In their 1975 monograph on the Proteaceae, Lawrie Johnson and Barbara Briggs placed it in a subtribe Roupalinae alongside the New Caledonian genus ''Kermadecia'' as the genera had similar floral parts and leaves. Both taxa also have 14 chromosome pairs. In 2006, the family's classification was redefined using molecular data. Here, ''Roupala'' emerged as a sister to the genera ''Orites'' and '' Neorites'', with ''Knightia'' as the next most closely related taxon, while ''Kermadecia'' was not related. They thus placed the first three genera in the subtribe ''Roupalinae'', conceding that the next closest relatives of this gr ...

Roupala Montana
''Roupala montana'' is a species of shrub or tree in the family Proteaceae which is native to much of the Neotropics. It is a morphologically variable species with four recognised varieties. The species is used medicinally in Venezuela, and as an aphrodisiac in Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela. Description The species ranges in size from shrubs to trees, usually tall, but sometimes ranging up to tall. The leaves are usually simple in adult plants, but are occasionally compound. It is an ochlospecies—a species that is highly variable morphologically, and that variability "cannot be satisfactorily accommodated within a formal classification"—with a very wide distribution. Consequently, a large number of species and varieties have been described based on variations between collections. Taxonomy The species was first described by Jean Baptiste Christophore Fusée Aublet in 1775. The name ''Roupala'' was based on ''roupale'', a name used locally in French Guiana. The Latin s ...

Neorites
''Neorites'' is a monotypic genus of plants in the family Proteaceae. The sole species ''Neorites kevedianus'', commonly called fishtail oak or fishtail silky oak, is a tall tree endemic to the wet tropics rainforests of north eastern Queensland, Australia. Taxonomy and naming Queensland botanist Lindsay Smith named the species in 1969, based on a specimen collected near Kuranda in 1955 by Queensland forestry officers Kevin J. White and H. Edgar Volck. Smith coined the species name from the first names of the finders. Peter H. Weston and Nigel Barker refined the classification of the Proteaceae in 2006, incorporating molecular data. Here, ''Neorites'' emerged as closely related to the genera ''Orites'' and '' Roupala''. They thus placed the three genera in the subtribe ''Roupalinae'', conceding that the next closest relatives of this group is unclear. This group lies within the subfamily Grevilleoideae.
