Phenolic compounds in the taxonomy of Tephrosia Pers. (Leguminosae) With one Figure and 2 Tables

Phenolic compounds have been analysed in eighteen taxa of Tephrosia. In all, forty one compounds have been detected of which eight are identified. The present study suggests that T. calophylla and T. villosa stand isolated from the rest. Further, it lends support to maintain T. hamiltonii as distinct from T. purpurea and taxonomic distinction of T. strigosa. Von 18 Taxa der Gattung Tephrosia wurden die Phenolanteile analysiert. In allen wurden 21 Komponenten gefunden, von denen acht bestimmt wurden. Aus vorliegender Studie ist zu schlusfolgern, das T. calophylla und T. villosa von den ubrigen isoliert stehen. Ferner ergibt sich, das T. hamiltonii von T. purpurea abzutrennen ist und ebenso ist T. strigosa taxonomisch selbstandig.
