Encephalartos successibus Vorster & Heibloem 1995Description"Encephalartos successibus ... is a large arborescent plant, with mostly non-overlapping leaflets. The strobili are green and glabrous; the megastrobilus is ovoid, shortly pedunculate but with peduncle buried in cataphylls so that the megastrobilus appears to be sessile, with the exposed faces of the megasporophylls more or less smooth; the microstrobili emerge in succession, being narrowly ovoid, long-pedunculate, with the exposed faces of the microsporophylls smooth" (1).RangeUganda (1).Citations(1) Vorster, P. and P.
