Note: The synonymy was proposed by Denizot (1968: 139–141). Dufour's epithet was intentionally or unintentionally changed to cruciata by Zanardini. Weber-van Bosse (l.c.) stated that the plant from Saya de Malha Bank was conspecific with specimens from Nias Island, Sumatra. However, when she proposed a new species, Cruoriella de-zwaanii, for the latter specimens she did not mention the Saya de Malha Bank record.
