A frequent species when present; growing on swampy, periodically inundated or well-drained soils, in primary or secondary forests, sometimes near rivers and swampy areas. Altitude 50-500 m a.s.l. Local and common names known in Cameroon. mambéléngé, mandongé (dial. Baka bibaya). IUCN conservation status. Not evaluated (probably LC). Uses in Cameroon. medicine: bark used to allay fever; construction: wood used to make spoons. Notes. Meiocarpidium oliverianum is easily identifiable by the presence of peltate scale-like hairs on the lower side of the leaf blade, calyx and fruits, giving these parts a silvery aspect and color. The species was previsously known under the name Meiocarpidium lepidotum (Oliv.) Engl. & Diels, but the name Meiocarpidium oliverianum of Baillon (1868) was published earlier and has priority (Johnson and Murray 2018). Selected specimens examined.
