Three species are native to west-central Africa (Gabon, Republic of the Congo, and DR Congo), two species to West Africa (Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia), and two species to southeastern Africa (Tanzania, Zambia and Mozambique) – one to the
Zambezian region and one to the Zanzibar–Inhambane region. The genus belongs to the mimosoid clade of subfamily Caesalpinioideae.
