Leucomphalos
Introduction '''''Leucomphalos''''' is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It contains a single species, '''''Leucomphalos capparideus''''', a climbing perennial shrub native to the Guineo-Congolian forest of Nigeria, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and the Gulf of Guinea Islands. It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae. ''Leucomphalos'' was traditionally assigned to the tribe Sophoreae; however, recent molecular phylogenetic analyses reassigned ''Leucomphalos'' to the Baphieae tribe.
