[edit] Error (?) in Number of Species

The current version of this article says that Goupia contains three species. It gives the name of one: G. glabra. However, the Goupia article in the Portuguese Wikipedia lists five species: G. cinerascens, G. glabra, G. guatemalensis, G. paraensis, and G. tomentosa. It looks like one of these articles needs fixing. I wouldn't know which. By the way, this page says that a synonym for G. glabra is G. paraensis Huber. Tugbug 23:08, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Three species is correct; G. paraensis and G. tomentosa are both synonyms of G. glabra (from first ref cited) - MPF (talk) 11:22, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
