This member of the Euphorbiaceae family
was given this name by Sébastien Houyelle in 2016. It is found in the northern
Madagascar, growing in a well drained soil with some water and some sun. The caudex
might grow to seven centimetres in diameter, the entire plant
might reach 30 centimetres in height. The flowers are brownish-white.
The genera name; Euphorbia
dates back to the first century BC, where King Juba II of
Mauritania used it in a reference to his doctor, Euphorbos, and that
name was kept as a generic name by Carl von Linnaeus. The specific
epithet honours Nadia Raheliarisoa, who travelled with Christophe Quénel
and Sébastien Houyelle. |
