Abstract
Vatica cauliflora P.S.Ashton (Dipterocarpaceae) is an endemic and critically endangered tree found only in Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Due to a lack of fruiting specimens, the species has not been placed within one of the three sections currently recognised in the genus Vatica. In early 2020, this plant was recollected after 67 years. Voucher specimens were made of fruiting material, which enable us to assign this species to the correct section. Based on the equal, woody, and non-incrassate calyx lobes, the species is here placed in the sect. Vatica as these traits are shared with other species in that section. An updated morphological description alongside information on the habitat, vernacular names, and germination of the species are provided.
期刊介绍：
FLORA publishes original contributions and review articles on plant structure (morphology and anatomy), plant distribution (incl. phylogeography) and plant functional ecology (ecophysiology, population ecology and population genetics, organismic interactions, community ecology, ecosystem ecology). Manuscripts (both original and review articles) on a single topic can be compiled in Special Issues, for which suggestions are welcome.
FLORA, the scientific botanical journal with the longest uninterrupted publication sequence (since 1818), considers manuscripts in the above areas which appeal a broad scientific and international readership. Manuscripts focused on floristics and vegetation science will only be considered if they exceed the pure descriptive approach and have relevance for interpreting plant morphology, distribution or ecology. Manuscripts whose content is restricted to purely systematic and nomenclature matters, to geobotanical aspects of only local interest, to pure applications in agri-, horti- or silviculture and pharmacology, and experimental studies dealing exclusively with investigations at the cellular and subcellular level will not be accepted. Manuscripts dealing with comparative and evolutionary aspects of morphology, anatomy and development are welcome.
