This member of the Vitaceae family was given this name by Bernard Marie Descoings in 1964. It is found in north-western Madagascar, growing in a well drained limestone soil with some water and some sun. The caudex can grow to 40 centimetres in diameter, two metres high, the plant's height is unknown for now. The flowers are light green.
The genera name from the Greek kyphos; 'tumor' or,'hump' and stemma; 'garland' or 'crown'. The species name means 'bearing horns'. Not really sure where...
