| Summary: | Aridarum ashtonii is described as a new
species from highland sandstones of the
Hose Mountains, Kapit, Sarawak, Malaysian
Borneo. Aridarum ashtonii has previously
been confounded by the authors with
Aridarum burttii, a species occurring on
lowland riverine shales. Notes on Aridarum
burttii are given and the purported origins of
the Type specimen questioned. Aridarum
ashtonii and A. burttii are illustrated from
living plants, and a key to the five species of
the Aridarum Burttii Complex is provided.
Recognition of A. ashtonii takes Aridarum to
26 accepted, described species. |
