Question: Which is native to the Caribbean, Myrteola or Gesneria?

Context paragraphs:
Salvia gesneriflora: Salvia gesneriflora (sometimes spelled Salvia gesneriiflora) is a herbaceous perennial or subshrub native to mountainous provinces of the Sierra Madre Oriental in Mexico, growing at 7,500-10,000 ft elevation.  It was named in honor of 15th century Swiss botanist Conrad Gessner, for whom the genus "Gesneria" and family Gesneriaceae are also named.  The long tubular flowers of this salvia resemble "Gesneria" flowers.  It is a popular ornamental plant.

Dugu: The Dugu is an ancient extended funerary ceremony (in Belize it is also known as the 9 nights ceremony) practiced by the Garifuna people.  The Garifuna is a small-to-medium-sized Central American ethnic group that has inhabited many Central American countries such as Belize and Honduras since the 17th century.  Their roots come from both the Caribbean and African coasts.  The story goes that slaves being brought over to the Americas crashed into St. Vincent.  The indigenous Caribbean Indians and Africans soon formed a community and ethnic group called the Garifuna.  They were identified as the "Black Caribs" to differentiate them from the native Caribbean population.

Caribbean monk seal: The Caribbean monk seal, West Indian seal or sea wolf (as early explorers referred to it), "Neomonachus tropicalis", was a species of seal native to the Caribbean and is now believed to be extinct.  The Caribbean monk seals' main predators were sharks and humans. Overhunting of the seals for oil, and overfishing of their food sources, are the established reasons for the seals' extinction.  The last confirmed sighting of the Caribbean Monk Seal was in 1952 at Serranilla Bank, between Jamaica and Nicaragua.  In 1994 the species was officially declared extinct in the United States of America after an exhaustive search for the seals which lasted for about five years.  This analysis was conducted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Marine Fisheries Service.  Caribbean monk seals were closely related to the Hawaiian monk seals, which live around the Hawaiian Islands and are now endangered, and Mediterranean monk seals, another endangered species.  An estimated 600 Mediterranean monk seals and 1,100 Hawaiian monk seals are alive in the wild.

List of rodents of the Caribbean: The Caribbean region is home to a diverse and largely endemic rodent fauna.  This includes the endemic family Capromyidae (hutias), which are largely limited to the Greater Antilles, and two other groups of endemic hystricognaths, the heteropsomyines and giant hutias, including the extinct bear-sized "Amblyrhiza inundata".  Lesser Antillean rodent faunas mostly consist of oryzomyines, members of a distantly related group of rodents, and include two of the largest known oryzomyines, "Megalomys desmarestii" and ""Oryzomys hypenemus"".  Various other rodents are limited to land-bridge islands such as Trinidad, which were connected to the mainland during glacial-period lowered sea levels in the Pleistocene, or to smaller portions of the Caribbean archipelago.  Much of the native rodent fauna of the Caribbean are extinct because of human influences, particularly following the introduction of invasive species such as Old World rats.

Myrteola: Myrteola is a plant genus in the Myrtaceae described as a genus in 1856.  It is native to South America and the Falkland Islands.

Afro-Caribbean: Afro-Caribbeans, a term not used by Caribbean's themselves but first coined by American's in late 1960's, attributed Caribbean people who trace at least some of their ancestry to West Africa in the period since Christopher Columbus's arrival in the region in 1492.  Other names for this ethnicity include African-Caribbean (especially preferred among the United Kingdom branch of the diaspora), Afro-Antillean, or Afro-West Indian.  Between the 16th and 19th centuries, European-led triangular trade brought enslaved West African people to work on Caribbean islands, primarily on various sugar plantations and in domestic households.  Many Afro-Caribbeans also have non-African ancestry, such as European, Asian, Middle Eastern, and Native American, as there has been extensive intermarriage and unions among the peoples over the centuries.

Arini (tribe): The Arini tribe of the neotropical parrots is a monophyletic clade of macaws and parakeets (commonly called conures in aviculture) characterized by colorful plumage and long, tapering tails.  They occur throughout Mexico, Central America, and South America, and formerly the Caribbean and North America.  One genus and several species are extinct; another genus is extinct in the wild.  Two species are known only through subfossil remains.  About a dozen hypothetical extinct species (see Extinct Caribbean macaws) have been described, native to the Caribbean area.

Caribbean people: A Caribbean person or West Indian is a native or inhabitant of the Caribbean region or a person of Caribbean descent living outside the Caribbean.  The Caribbean region was initially populated by Amerindians from several different Carib and Arawak groups.  These groups were decimated by a combination of slavery and disease brought by European colonizers.  Descendants of the Arawak and Carib tribes exist today in the Caribbean and elsewhere but are usually of partial Native American ancestry.

Mauby: Mauby (in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, Guyana, Bermuda, Barbados, Antigua and Barbuda and Anguilla), but also known as maví (or mabí) in Puerto Rico, mabi in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, and maubi in the Virgin Islands and Dutch Caribbean islands of St. Eustatius, St. Maarten and Saba), is a tree bark-based beverage grown, and widely consumed, in the Caribbean.  It is made with sugar and the bark and/or fruit of certain species in the "Colubrina" genus including "Colubrina elliptica" (also called "behuco indio") and "Colubrina arborescens", a small tree native to the northern Caribbean and south Florida.  Recipes usually include other spices as well, aniseed being very common.

Gesneria: Gesneria is a genus of approximately 50 species in the flowering plant family Gesneriaceae.  Except for two or three odd South American species, all are native to islands of the Caribbean.  The genus is classified in the tribe Gesnerieae along with the genera "Bellonia", "Pheidonocarpa", and "Rhytidophyllum".  "Gesneria" species are usually woody shrubs or subshrubs, and (with the closely related "Rhytidophyllum") are unusual in the family in having alternately (rather than decussately) arranged leaves.  A complete list of the accepted species and their synonyms can be found in the Smithsonian Institution's World Checklist of Gesneriaceae.
