Abstract

As part of The Flora of Peninsular Malaysia project, work is now underway to produce a checklist of the Araceae for Peninsular Malaysia as a first step to the final account. The species described here as new came to light recently as not fitting any known described Malaysian Homalomena species. The species is illustrated.
