Studies on Schismatoglottideae (Araceae) of Borneo XX: Beccari's «La Più piccola delle Aracee» (Microcasia pygmaea) recollected and transferred to Bucephalandra Schott
Beccari's Microcasia pygmaea has been recollected in Sarawak after almost 145 years. Examination reveals, contrary to recent taxonomic treatments, it to be a distinct species (of the genus Bucephalandra) not conspecific with Bucephalandra motleyana Schott. Microcasia pygmaea Becc. is here trans...

| description | Beccari's Microcasia pygmaea has been recollected in Sarawak after almost 145 years. Examination reveals, contrary to recent taxonomic treatments, it to be a distinct species (of the genus Bucephalandra) not conspecific with Bucephalandra motleyana Schott. Microcasia pygmaea Becc. is here transferred to Bucephalandra as Bucephalandra pygmaea (Becc.) P.C. Boyce & S.Y. Wong, comb. nov. Notes on taxonomically critical morphologies are provided. Bucephalandra is now considered to comprise five published accepted species, elucidated in a new key. Notes on the taxonomy of Bucephalandra and Microcasia are given and Bucephalandra pygmaea is illustrated from living plants. |
