Abarema is a neotropical genus in the family Fabaceae. It is native to Brazil, Cuba, and Venezuela.[1]Most of the species can be found in the Amazon Basin and the Guyana Highlands. They have a deep-green fernlike foliage, with bipinnately compound leaves.

Taxonomy

This genus has been proven to be polyphyletic under its previous circumscription. As a result of the genetic evidence, the genera Jupunba and Punjuba were separated from Abarema.[2]

Species

Following the 1996 revision, there are currently about 45 species. In older works, the entire genus is usually included within Pithecellobium.[3]
