{{Inc|
Heteropteris (various winged, referring to the fr.). Malpighiaceae. Shrubs, erect or rarely climbing, of Trop. Amer. and 1 in W. Afr. Fls. small, yellow or purple, in panicles or racemes: lvs. opposite, nearly or quite entire. The calyx is 5-parted, some or all the lobes with a pair of sessile glands; petals clawed; stamens 10, all perfect but unequal; ovary 3-celled, with 3 subulate styles, the stigma on an angle of the style: fr. 1-3 samaras, with a somewhat semicircular wing.— Species 90 or more. The climbing species may be found in choice collections. H. purpurea, Kunth, is a low cumber among shrubs, according to Grisebach, in the farther W. Indies and Venezuela: lvs. oval, glabrous, somewhat glaucous beneath, the petiole with 2 glands at the middle: fls. purple( corymbose or racemose, on slender pedicels that are jointed below the middle: fr. 1 in. long, with semi-obovate oblique wings. H. chrysophylla, HBK. Twining: lvs. oval or oval-oblong, entire, glabrous above and golden pubescent beneath: fls. orange, becoming reddish. Brazil. B.M. 3237. An interesting plant for the warmhouse, long-climbing.
