madag

By far the most diverse area, in terms of native species, on this continent.
Madagascar is home to between 32 and 36 known native/endemic species.
Taxonomists are still quite divided on the groupings of many of these species.
Although the species show an evolutionary path dominated by the island's isolation
from other bamboo areas, modern species show similarities to many species now
found in Nepal, Bhutan and India.
