On account of the species 22, 26, and 30, having 

 five stamina, Michaux makes them constitute a 

 distinct genus, which he calls AMPELOKSIS. 

 Persoon, however, gives these species under 

 Cissus, with the following generic character: 

 Cal. 4-dentatus inferus. Pet. 4, libera reflexo- 

 -patula decidua.
