DESCRIPTION. — See Aubréville (1968, 1970); Vivien &amp; Faure (2011). DISTRIBUTION. — <i>Cryptosepalum staudtii</i> occurs in Nigeria (possibly), Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon (Fig. 5). The exact locality where the only Nigerian specimen, <i>Rosevear s.n.</i>, was collected is uncertain; this could be Nigeria or the Southwest Region in Cameroon. The species is common around the towns of Mbalmayo and Ebolowa in Cameroon, and in the Lopé Reserve in Gabon (White &amp; Abernethy 1996). HABITAT. — Rainforest and gallery forest, 200-700 m. CONSERVATION STATUS <i>Cryptosepalum staudtii</i> is here assessed as Least Concern (IUCN 2013), because it occurs in three or four countries and is known from at least 23 collections. The extent of occurrence is 94 900 km 2.
