Amaracarpus is a genus of shrubs, treelets or trees in the family Rubiaceae.[1] It was described by Carl Ludwig Blume in 1826. Most of the species are endemic to New Guinea but a few have wider ranges in Southeast Asia from Myanmar (Burma) and the Andaman Islands across Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines , Melanesia, Christmas Island, Queensland and Vanuatu. One species also occurs in the Seychelles.[2] Several species were published years ago but are today not represented by any type specimens or other known existing material.[citation needed]
