NOTES:
Material from Madagascar and the Comoros differs slightly from the Mauritian, [1915]
but there is insufficient material to tell if these differences are constant. [1915]
Cultivated on Reunion. [1915]
Endemic to Mauritius. [3064]
Seeds of this species on Mayotte are intermediate between G. pterocarpa and [3109]
G. commersoniana var. calcicola, suggesting that it evolved from G. [3109]
commersoniana var. calcicola. [3109]
