Soejima and Wen J. 2006; Ren H. et al. 2011; Nie Z. L. et al. 2012), with molecular data placing the African Rhoicissus Planchon and the South American Cissus striata Ruiz & Pavon complex within Ampelopsis. To maintain the monophyly of genera of Vitaceae, Wen et al. (2014) separated Ampelopsis into two genera: Ampelopsis and Nekemias. The two genera can be distinguished by their leaf and bud morphology. Nekemias has pinnately compound leaves (versus simple, trifoliolate, or palmately compound leaves in Ampelopsis) and complex axillary buds (versus serial accessory buds).</p> |tables= |references={{Treatment/Reference |id=wen2014a |text=Wen, J., J.
