Abstract

Six new species of Gomphandra (Stemonuraceae) are described from the Philippines. Gomphandra bracteata is restricted to southern Palawan, G. coi and G. psilandra are from Luzon, G. fernandoi is found in the eastern Visayan region, and G. dinagatensis and G. ultramafiterrestris occur on Dinagat Island. A new subspecies, Gomphandra luzoniensis subsp. septentrionalis, from the northern Philippines and Taiwan, is distinguished. Distribution maps and preliminary conservation statuses are provided for each taxon. A key to the Philippine species of Gomphandra is included. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
