Tree in Rashad Area at Nuba Mountains – South Kordofan State, Sudan A multi-location experiments were carried out for two seasons (2005– 2006) to study the germination, establishment and survival of S. birrea artificially and in the natural state at Rashad locality (latitudes 10° and 13° N and longitudes 29° and 33° E), Nuba mountains, South Kordofan State. Three experiments were conducted in the above area. The first experiment was the assessment of natural regeneration of the species under natural stand where transect

Vietnamese Spondias has remained taxonomically unresolved and the infrageneric relationship within the genus has been disputed. Here, we present molecular phylogenetic analyses of this genus and its close relatives using a combined dataset of the chloroplast rbcL, matK, and trnL-F regions. Molecular analyses strongly supported the monophyly of Spondias with two major clades and Vietnamese Spondias was placed within Asian Spondias clade. Based on both morphological and molecular data, we recognized two species of Spondias: S. dulcis Parkinson and S. pinnata (L. f.) Kurz in Vietnam. The key and description for Vietnamese Spondias species were provided. We also suggested to recognize Spondias petelotii as a synonym of Allospondias lakonensis.
