Either I'm not using the taxonomy database correctly, or within the
taxon I'm studying (Malvaceae) the list of genera is not complete, and
the list of species is those which have been deposited in GenBank/EMBL.
For example there are none of the 4 genera (Kydia, Nayariphyton,
Julostylis, Dicellostyles) in tribe Kydieae are listed.
