The names here used are retained in the absence of specific information as to what wild species of Dizygotheca they are to be associated with. Only complete flowering material can settle this much-vexed question. All of the following are distinct horticulturally.

The following greenhouse aralias, with showy lvs., probably belong to Dizygotheca, unless otherwise noted:
A. Chabrieri, Hort. See Polyscias. — D. craissifolia, Soland. See Pseudopanax. — D. longipes, Hort. Lvs. digitate, the lfts. oblong-lanceolate, acuminate, wavy- N. Austral. — D. nobilis, Hort. "A theophrasta-like plant, with closely packed, bold foliage, the Iva. oblong obovate-acuminate, undulate at the margins." Not certainly referable to Dizygotheca. — D. Osyana, Hort. Like A. leptophylla, but lfts. deeply bifid, and nerves and veins brown. S. Sea Isls. — D. quercifolia, Hort. Lfts. 3, sinuate: lvs. opposite. New Britain. Perhaps not of the Araliaceae. The plant has opposite lvs. — D. rotunda, Hort. Lf. of a single orbicular-cordate lft. or sometimes 3-foliolate, white-toothed. Polynesia. Not certainly referable to Dizygotheca. — D. spectabilis, Hort.=? — D. splendidissima, Hort. Lvs. pinnate, the lfts. shiny green. New Caledonia— Polyscias. — D. ternata, Hort. Lvs. opposite, ternate, or 3-lobed, the lfts. oblong-lanceolate and sinuate. Not certainly referable to Dizygotheca. — D. Victoriae, Hort.=Polyscias.
