Talipariti

Talipariti is a genus of plants in the mallow family Malvaceae. It consists of 22 species, which are exclusively tropical except for one species whose range extends into temperate areas of Japan and Korea. Most authors now treat these species as part of the genus Hibiscus, in which case they form the section Hibiscus sect. Azanzae.^[2]
