标题泛热带石杉属的多叶植物。&G.Forst.(Araliaceae)现在已经很好地建立了，因此该属已经被限制在它的模式(S.Digitata J.R.Forst.&G.Forst.)以及七种关系密切的太平洋岛屿物种。其他四个不相关的支系成员的分类转移已基本完成，包括来自非洲和马达加斯加、新热带地区和大洋洲的成员。在这里，我们处理最后一个也是最大的一个群体，来自亚洲，恢复七子参属。属于亚洲林地的317个物种。本提纲提供了246种和10变种的256个新组合，以及一个替换名称，并为5个属名和亚属名指定了模式。随着这些转移的完成，七叶树现在是五加科中最大的属。
The polyphyly of the pantropical genus Schefflera J. R. Forst. & G. Forst. (Araliaceae) is now well established, and consequently the genus has had to be restricted to its type (S. digitata J. R. Forst. & G. Forst.) and seven closely related Pacific Island species. Taxonomic transfers of the members of four other, unrelated clades have mostly been completed, including those from Africa and Madagascar, the Neotropics, and Oceania. Here we treat the final and largest group, from Asia, reinstating the genus Heptapleurum Gaertn. for the 317 species that belong to the Asian Glade of Schefflera. This synopsis provides 256 new combinations for 246 species and 10 varieties, along with one replacement name, and types are designated for five generic and infrageneric names. With the completion of these transfers, Heptapleurum is now the largest genus in Araliaceae.
