The genus Klaineanthus is most nearly allied to Cunuria, Baill., a 
Brazilian genus of somewhat doubtful affinity, which differs in having 
at the base. Bentham has placed Cunuria in the Jatropheae, and 
Pierre in his MSS. notes in Herb. Paris has suggested the same position 
for Klaineanthus. Miiller, on the other hand, placed Cunuria near 
Cheilosa, which Bentham includes in the Acalypheae. Neither position 
appears at all satisfactory, and the most natural a for both genera 
is probably in the subtribe Gelonieae—D. Pra
