Abstract
19. Acalypha hispida Burm.f. Flora Indica 303, pl. 61, f. 1 (Burman 1768). — Ricinocarpus hispidus (Burm.f.) Kuntze, Revisio Generum Plantarum 2: 618 (Kuntze 1891). — Type: Habitat in India. Burman 1768: 302, table 61. ICONOGRAPHY. — André (1898: 227); Hooker (1899: t. 7632). ETYMOLOGY. — The epithet refers to the long and laciniate styles of the pistillate inflorescence according Sagun et al. (2010), or perhaps to the hispid surface of the ovary. DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT. — Cultivated species in Madagascar (Anosy) and Seychelles (Mahé) (Fig. 34). PRELIMINARY CONSERVATION ASSESSMENT. — Acalypha hispida is widely cultivated in warm areas worldwide and not known in the wild; it sometimes escapes and is found along forest edges and roads. We assess A. hispida as Least Concern (LC). MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 3 collections. Madagascar. Seligson, D. 652 (GH [GH01097235]). Seychelles. Hein, G. 10 (GH [GH01097236]); Jeffrey, C. 599 (K).

DESCRIPTION Shrubs or subshrubs, probably evergreen, to 4 m tall, possibly dioecious, only female plants known. Branches tomentose and short-hispid, glabrescent when mature. Axillary buds naked, densely pubescent with simple, short trichomes. Stipules to 1 cm long, triangular-lanceolate, appressed-pubescent. Petioles (2-) 4-11 cm long, indumentum similar to that on young branches, glabrescent. Leaf blades not variegated, (8-)10-17(-19) × (5.5-)7-10(-13) cm, usually ovate to elliptic-lanceolate, sometimes subrhombic, membranous; base usually rounded, sometimes subcuneate to subcordate; apex acute to subacuminate, acumen to 5 mm long, obtuse, mucronate; margin serrate to crenate-serrate, teeth acute or obtuse, sometimes slightly callose-edged; upper and lower surfaces subglabrous, with some sparse, simple trichomes on veins; venation actinodromous, basal veins 5 or 7, secondary veins 7-9 per side. Stipels absent. Inflorescences spiciform, unisexual, axillary. Male inflorescences unknown. Female inflorescences pendulous, densely flowered, to 40 cm long; peduncle to 30 mm long, pubescent with simple, curved trichomes; bracts numerous, sessile, not enlarging in fruit, to 1 mm long, elliptic-lanceolate, sparsely hairy and ciliate; margin entire; bracteoles absent. Male flowers unknown. Female flowers 4-6 per bract, sessile; sepals 3-4, to 1 mm long, triangular-lanceolate, ciliate; ovary c. 1 mm diameter, 3-lobed, smooth, surface densely hispid; styles 3, to 8 mm long, distinct, glabrous, each divided into 6-16 segments. Allomorphic flowers not seen. Capsules and seeds not seen. NOTE This shrub, native to Melanesia or Malesia (Sagun et al. 2010), is frequent in gardens throughout the tropics and rarely appears naturalized. As all plants are pistillate, it can only reproduce clonally.We found collections from Madagascar and Seychelles where it is cultivated. It has been reported from Madagascar (Palacký 1907), Mauritius (Bojer 1837; Baillon 1861), La Réunion (Baillon 1861: 274) and the Seychelles (Robertson1989).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
