Jatropha is a widely distributed genus, ranging from tropical America to Africa and India (Deh- gan & Webster 1979). In Malesia the members of this genus are introduced and were formerly used for medicine and as hedgerows, nowadays they are mainly used as ornamentals (J. gossypiifolia L., J. integerrima Jacq., J. multifida L., J. po- dagrica Hook.) (label information, Burkill 1935, Heyne 1950), or for biofuel (J. curcas). Especially, J. curcas and J. gossypii- folia escaped from cultivation and established themselves over the whole of Malesia and have the potential to be damaging, invasive species (Sweet et al., unpubl. ms.). Jatropha gossypii- folia is already considered a medium impact invasive weed in Australia (Thorpe & Lynch 2000) and species for its biological control are evaluated (Heard et al. 2002). Webster (1994, 2014) and Radcliffe-Smith (2001) classify Ja- tropha in the subfamily Crotonoideae tribe Jatropheae. In the skeleton phylogeny of the Euphorbiaceae by Wurdack et al. (2005) Jatropha is part of clade C1 (their f. 4), together with members of tribe Crotoneae (sensu Webster 1994, 2014, Radcliffe-Smith 2001). Müller Argoviensis (1866) provided a first infrageneric classi- fication, based on work of Baillon (1864), recognizing three sec- tions of which two were subdivided into two subsections. He still included Cnidoscolus as the third section, now regarded as a distinct genus (e.g., McVaugh 1944, Radcliffe-Smith 2001, Web- ster 2014). Pax (1910) made a much more elaborate division with subgenera, sections and subsections, but also included Cnidoscolus. The most recent infrageneric classification is by Dehgan & Webster (1979), which was more or less confirmed by a phenetic (and less by an, on morphological characters based, phylogenetic) analysis by Dehgan & Schutzman (1994). Dehgan & Webster (1979) based themselves on Pax (1910) and also used subgenera, sections and subsections (but excluded Cnidoscolus). Of the Malesian species only J. curcas is part of subg. Curcas (Adans.) Pax sect. Curcas (Adans.) Griseb. The other four species are classified in subg. Jatropha. Within the latter subgenus J. gossypiifolia is part of sect. Jatropha subsect. Adenophorae Pax ex Dehgan & G.L.Webster (nom. inval., must be subsect. Jatropha); J. integrifolia is part of sect. Polymorpha Pax subsect. Polymorphae (Pax) Dehgan & G.L.Webster, and, finally, J. multifida and J. podagrica are placed in sect. Peltatae (Pax) Dehgan & G.L.Webster. A first attempt to circumscribe Malesia as a region was made by Zollinger (1857; see also Lam 1937, Raes & Van Welzen 2009). Van Steenis (1948, 1950) was the first to provide proof that Malesia is a phytogeographical region, which was confirmed by Van Welzen et al. (2005). In 1951 Van Steenis launched his ambitious international project to revise all plant genera in Malesia, the ‘Flora Malesiana’ project, that, to date, is still running. The present revision is a contribution to this project. Characters The character states mentioned in this chapter only pertain to the Malesian taxa. An elaborate and excellent discussion of the morphology of Jatropha can be found in Dehgan & Webster (1979). Habit Dehgan & Webster (1979) describe J. gossypiifolia as a ‘facul- tatively annual, herbaceous subshrub with woody stem’ as the plant more or less dies back every year in greenhouses. Outside greenhouses, under tropical conditions, the species is truly perennial and just like J. integerrima a shrub. Jatropha poda- grica is characterized by Dehgan & Webster (1979) as an ‘erect fleshy subshrub with woody-succulent, above-ground caudex and branches’, this species typically has a broad, succulent flask-like stem-base apically tapering into a far more slender upper stem part with a terminal tuft of leaves and inflorescences. Jatropha curcas and J. multifida can become higher shrubs to small trees up to 10 m high. Indumentum Most of the species are glabrous or have in various parts an indumentum of mainly simple hairs.

which come in two types, branching trichomes with an elongated glandular head or mushroom-like, non-branching ones with a broad,horizontalglandular,capitatehead.

Leaf morphologyThe stipules are ovate or triangular in J. curcas and J. integer­rima,andcanbeearlycaducous.InJ. multifida and J. poda­ grica the stipules are branched into narrow lobes, in J. gossypii­folia the stipules are dissected and resemble the branching glandulartrichomes.All the species have simple, alternate leaves that are lobed (3–13lobes),butsometimesthelobesarenotobvious(J. inte­ gerrima).Jatropha integerrima and J. multifida have small side-lobes, J. integerrima mainly at the base of the blade, and J. mul­ tifidaalternatelyalong the lobes.Themarginsaregenerallyentire, with J. gossypiifolia and J. multifidabeingexceptionstothat.Jatropha gossypiifoliahasafinelyserratemarginwithsimple and glandular, unbranched hairs, and J. multifida has oneormore side-lobes.The speciesare basally palmatelyveined, thesecondaryveinsalongthemidrib(of thecentrallobe)loopandanastomosenearthemargin,thehigherorderofveinsarereticulate.

InflorescencesThe inflorescences are usually subterminal and cymose, often corymbiform, consisting of usually compound cymes or varia-tionswithreductions.Typicalforthegenusisthateveryprimarybranch ends with a pistillate flower, the lateral flowers in the cymesaregenerallystaminate.The basal bract is by far the largest and often they have similar hairs or glandular hairs as the normal leaves, sometimes they alsohave stipule-like lateral structures.Upwards thebractsdecreaseinsize.
