Abscission of anthers was found in most Cecropia species studied for a taxonomic treatment of this genus for the Amazon region of Brazil*. Cecropia is a common genus in the neotropics. It comprises about 80 species. Most of them are arborescent pioneer plants and common in more or less open (secondary) vegetation.
