A Conspectus of the Araceae of Sabah

There are limited systematic studies on Araceae in Sabah. This study was started by compiling data from various herbaria (US, UPM, SNP, SING, SAR, SAN, PNH, P, NSW, MO, M, L, KYO, KRB, KEP, K, E, C, BRUN, BORH, BO, AAU, AAH, AA and A) to access the Araceae diversity in Sabah based on herbarium colle...

From the list, three genera (Cryptocoryne, Phymatarum and Pursegloveia) are new generic records. Cryptocoryne ciliata and Pothos leptostachyus are new records for Sabah. Homalomena portae-inferni, Pothos fractiflexus and Pursegloveia imbakensis are newly described species for Sabah. Tawaia is a monospecific genus endemic to Sabah. There are 49 species of Araceae that are Sabah endemics. A preliminary result of the IUCN Red List status and distribution map is also included for all the species of Araceae in Sabah.
