Individuals bisexual; inflorescences ramiflorous on old or young foliate branches, axillary. Flowers with 9 perianth parts in 2 whorls, 1 per inflorescence; pedicel 1-2 mm long, 1 mm in diameter, glabrous; in fruit 30 mm long, 3-4 mm in diameter, glabrous; bracts 3 to 7, several basal and one upper towards the lower half of pedicel, basal bracts ca. 1 mm long, ca. 1 mm wide; upper bracts ca. 1 mm long, ca. 1 mm wide; sepals 3, valvate, free, 2-3 mm long, 2-3 mm wide, ovate, apex acuminate, base truncate, green, glabrous outside, glabrous inside, margins flat; petals basally fused, tube 6-15 mm long, red, inner and outer whorl not differentiated, equal; lobes 10-23 mm long, 5-10 mm wide, ovate, apex acute, bright green-white to yellow, margins wavy, glabrous outside, glabrous inside, spreading horizontally; stamens numerous, in 3 to 4 rows, ca. 2 mm long, broad; connective discoid, glabrous, yellow; staminodes absent; carpels fused into a single structure, ca. 2 mm long, stigma bilobed, slightly capitate, glabrous. Fruit syncarpous, sessile, ca. 50 mm long, ca. 40 mm in diameter, globose, apex rounded, glabrous, rugulose, longitudinally 6-8 ribbed, green when unripe; seeds not counted, 8-10 mm long, 5-7 mm in diameter, ellipsoid; aril absent. Distribution. Known from Nigeria and Cameroon; in Cameroon known from the South and South-West regions. Habitat. An infrequent species; in lowland rain forests on non-inundated soils. Altitude 0-550 m a.s.l. Local and common names known in Cameroon. Avom (van Andel 4177). IUCN conservation status. Endangered (EN) (Cosiaux et al. 2019v). Uses in Cameroon. None reported. Notes. Isolona pleurocarpa is distinguished by the combination of these characters: young leaves glabrous, leaf blade inserted on the side of the petiole and decurrent to narrowly cuneate at base, midrib proximally depressed above, corolla lobes narrowly ovate to ovate with a narrowed base and an acute apex, undulate-wavy on the margins when dried.
