Pycnandra Benth., a member of subfamily Chrysophylloideae (Sapotaceae), is the largest endemic genus in New Caledonia and subdivided into six subgenera. It circumscribes 59 species, plus an additional three described here, nine species that remain undescribed for various reasons. We here use nrDNA data ETS, ITS, RPB2, analyse it within Bayesian framework using BEAST, place new their respective perplexa Swenson & Gâteblé placed subgenus Achradotypus given preliminary IUCN Red List assessment Near Threatened (NT). confined to ultramafic massif southern Grande Terre separated from similar P. griseosepala Vink, which non-ultramafic mountains north large plateau. kopetoensis Munzinger margueriteae are two micro-endemic known only type localities, where habitats have been destroyed by deforestation, deliberate fires mining activities. named after Mount Kopéto, Leptostylis, as Critically Endangered (CR). small remnant forest near Bourail categorised Revised identification keys Achradotypus, Leptostylis provided.
