Notes

Accepted by POWO under the name M. acidosa Griff., 1854, and by TAXREF under the name M. australis Poir., 1797. Kept here under a synonym since these two taxonomic treatments are incompatible with each other (M. australis Poir., 1797 sensu POWO = Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) L’Hér. ex Vent., 1799).

Most of the trees planted in public gardens are sterile cultivars that do not produce fruits.
