Leptoderris is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae.[2] It includes 22 species native to tropical Africa, ranging from Senegal to Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, and Angola.[1] It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae.
Species are generally lianas and sometimes shrubs. They are found mostly in the Guineo-Congolian rain forest from West to Central Africa, extending into seasonally-dry forest, woodland, and bushland north, south, and east of the forest region. Two species are native to the Zambezian region, and one is native to the Zanzibar–Inhambane forests of coastal eastern Africa.[1]
