In dealing with Vogel’s plant the younger Hooker was doubtful, in the 
absence of fruit, whether to place it in Lonchocarpus or Millettia. Numerous 
species have since come to Europe from this and neighbouring regions having 
similar habit and its peculiar floral characters. Some of them have typical 
Millettia fruit, and they have been distinguished as a section of that genus 
(Efulgentes), with this plant among them.
