In this study, we describe several new taxa belonging to the flora of Myanmar. One family, Polyosmaceae (Polyosma wallichii Benn.) is recorded. Over ten genera are recorded for first time, including Amentotaxus Pilger (Taxaceae), Hydrobryopsis Engler (Podostemaceae), Cyrtosia Blume and Biermannia King & Pantling (Orchidaceae), Eleutharrhena Forman Haematocarpus Miers (Menispermaceae), Craigia W.W. Smith W.E. Evans (Malvaceae), Amblyanthopsis Mez (Primulaceae), Huodendron Rehder...
Aristolochia sinoburmanica Y.H.Tan & B.Yang, a new species of Aristolochiaceae from Putao, Kachin State, Myanmar, is described and illustrated. According to morphology (strongly curved perianth, 3-lobed limb, as well gynostemium, anthers 6, adnate in 3 pairs the base opposite lobes), belongs subgenus Siphisia. It morphologically similar A. faviogonzalezii, hainanensis, tonkinensis, saccata xuanlienensis. The major differences between them are outlined discussed. A detailed description,...
Hedychium putaoense Y.H. Tan & H.B. Ding, a new species of Zingiberaceae from Putao, Kachin state, Northern Myanmar, is described and illustrated. It similar to H. densiflorum Wall. longipedunculatum A.R.K. Sastry D.M. Verma, but differs by its very small bract (4–6 × 2.5–3 mm vs. 18–19 5–5.5 ca. 11 7 mm, respectively), semicircle dark red bracteole, orange flower broadly falcate lanceolate lateral staminodes.
Myanmar is botanically rich and floristically diverse: one of the world's biodiversity hotspots. However, still very unevenly explored, until a plant checklist was published in 2003, relatively little work done on its flora. This included 11,800 species spermatophytes 273 families. Since this published, botanical exploration has accelerated there have been many additional publications. We therefore surveyed literature taxonomic contributions to Myanmar's vascular flora over last 20 years...
Begonia is the world’s fastest-growing genus and a focus of intense taxonomic research. To support this, stable useful sectional classification needed. This paper reviews feasibility challenges creating an infrageneric for based on phylogenetic data, how to overcome conflict. In particular, it (i) tests genus-wide patterns incongruence between phylogenies nuclear, chloroplast mitochondrial genomes; (ii) explains organelle inheritance its contribution incongruence, (iii) presents manifesto...
Two new species of Begonia L. (Begoniaceae), B. laotica (sect. Parvibegonia) and hypoleuca Reichenheimia), from north Laos are described illustrated. augustinei, dryadis, lancangensis, sizemoreae sillentensis subsp. mengyangensis were newly recorded taxa in Laos. Furthermore, an updated checklist is also compiled.
Three new species of Begonia (B. chenii, B. putaoensis and crassitepala) belonging to section Platycentrum a supplementary description rheophytica with detailed female flowers from Putao, Kachin State, Northern Myanmar, are described illustrated. All the endemic Myanmar can be easily distinguished other among Platycentrum. A description, photographs, habitat, distribution comparison most related allied for all provided.
In the course of a study Amomum s.l. (Zingiberaceae) in Myanmar, schistocalyx Y.H. Tan & H.B. Ding, from Htamanti Wildlife Sanctuary, Sangaing Region Northern Myanmar is described and illustrated as new to science here. Five taxa: A. yingjiangense S.Q. Tong Y.M. Xia, carnosum V.P. Thomas M. Sabu, tibeticum (T.L. Wu S.J. Chen) X.E. Ye, L. Bai N.H. Lanxangia scarlatina (H.T. Tsai P.S. M.F. Newman Škorničk, Meistera yunnanensis (S.Q. Tong) Škorničk. Newman, are newly recorded Myanmar. The...
A new species of Ericaceae, Agapetes reflexiloba, from Putao, Kachin State, Myanmar, is described and a colour plate provided, affiliated to sect. ser. Graciles Airy-Shaw. The morphologically similar A. nutans, linearifolia angustifolia the Series in having linear lanceolate narrow leaves corymbose-racemose inflorescences very short filaments. It is, however, readily distinguished its three relatives by purplish red dark acuminate corolla apex flower buds conspicuously reflexed lobes...
Two taxa of Amomum (Zingiberaceae), erythranthum and ampliflorum, from Putao, Kachin State Northern Myanmar are described illustrated as new to science. is morphologically similar A. subulatum nimkeyense in having yellow flowers, but can be distinguished by its reddish floral tube, red anther connective, pubescent fruit. ampliflorum maximum, dealbatum odontocarpum white flower, differs longer inflorescence much larger flower. species, pauciflorum Wurfbainia microcarpum recorded for the flora...
Monolophus odontochilus Y.H.Tan & H.B.Ding, a new species from Northern Myanmar, is described and illustrated. The morphologically similar to M. linearis, but differs by having elliptic oblong leaves (vs. linear-lanceolate lanceolate), bilobed ligules entire), purely white corolla pinkish white), semi-orbicular crenate labellum trilobed). In addition, diagnostic key the of its closely related non-yellow flowered provided. New combinations are proposed here for Caulokaempferia phokhamii...
A distinct new species of Premna, P. caridantha which was discovered from Putao District, Kachin State, northern Myanmar, is described and illustrated here. It characterized by having large intricate paniculiform inflorescences branch three times with the terminal formed a spike-like thyrse, zygomorphic corolla short-incurved tube, bright yellowish spot on middle lob lower lip. The most similar to grandipaniculata but clearly differs in leaf shape characters. Premna fourth thyrses third...
