The present enquiry relates to the following website: https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/b/berberidaceae/sinopodophyllum
According to Mabberley, D. J. (2017), Mabberley's Plant Book, Fourth Edition, *Sinopodophyllum *T. S. Ying is a synonym of *Podophyllum *L. Please see also: http://plantsoftheworldonline.org/?q=Sinopodophyllum Recently a new subspecies of *Sinopodophyllum hexandrum *has been described from Sikkim: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/njb.02181 My question to the experts of the group is that: first, whether a subspecies can be described without phytogeographic isolation? Secondly, whether this new subspecies, if sufficiently distinct, should not be transferred to *Podophyllum*? Kindly enlighten me.
