Abstract

A study on the affinity of undescribed taxa of Amorphophallus with A. paeoniifolius and its related species was undertaken using numerical analyses of data derived from preserved and living specimens. The results obtained were compared with the system of classification produced by classical taxonomic methods. The Javanese wild and cultivated forms of Amorphophallus paeoniifolius respectively known locally as "Amorphophallus campanulatus f. hortensis" and "Amorphophallus campanulatus f. sylves-tris" were confirmed as two distinct but closely related taxa.

Abstract

Gigantochloa pseudoarundinacea, G. robusta, G. atter, G. atroviola-cea and 14 other related Malesian species of bamboos were studied from preserved and living materials. Characters discerned by morphology, anatomy, chromatography and electrophoresis were analysed by numerical taxonomy. Most of the data indicated that the four species named above were distinct although closely related. The relationships of the remaining species were more complex, but the integrity of each species was established.

Abstract

Eighteen species of Gigantochloa are recognized from the Malesian area, of which ten species are wild and the rest are known only in cultivation. Besides morphological and anatomical evidences, data derived from chemotaxonomical analyses are also utilized in the systematic study of these species. A new combination (G. pseudoarundinacea) and four new species (G. achmadii, G. atroviolacea, G. manggong and G. pruriens) are proposed. Moreover a doubtful species (G. heteroclada) is also mentioned. Full illustrated descriptions, complete list of synonymy and typification aa well as sundry notes for each species treated are presented. Keys to all species and varieties recognized (based on the inflorescence and vegetative characters) are given and an index of all specimens examined is also appended.
