Berberis polyodonta is a shrub in the Berberidaceae described as a species in 1901. It is native to Assam, Myanmar, and southwestern China (Guizhou, Hubei, Sichuan, Tibet, Yunnan).




Taxonomy


Berberis polyodonta was initially scientifically described and named Mahonia polyodonta by Friedrich Karl Georg Fedde. A paper published by Joseph Edward Laferrière in 1997 summarized the arguments for Mahonia being more properly classified as a synonym of Berberis renaming it Berberis polyodonta. As of 2023 this is the most common classification by botanists.
