Statistics

The Plant List includes 97 scientific plant names of species rank for the genus Melpomene. Of these 28 are accepted species names.

The Plant List includes a further 4 scientific plant names of infraspecific rank for the genus Melpomene. We do not intend The Plant List to be complete for names of infraspecific rank. These are primarily included because names of species rank are synonyms of accepted infraspecific names.
