The fleshy genera Hoya (leaf succulent) and Stapelia (stem succulent) (Fig. 1.17) have been shown to have CAM. Hoya carnosa (Fig. 1.18) and Stapelia variegata have been shown to fix CO2 in the dark (Nuernbergk, 1961) and Stapelia nobilis was shown to have CAM by diurnal organic acid fluctuations (Milburn et al., 1968). In Frerea indica the stems show CAM, however, not the leaves (Lange and Zuber, 1977).
