Abstract
Bruguiera × dungarra (Rhizophoraceae), a previously undescribed hybrid species between B. exaristata and B. gymnorhiza is recorded from north-east Australia. Eight taxa are currently recognised in this Indo West Pacific genus, including three putative hybrids. The newly described hybrid is widely occurring, and it is described here with notes provided on typification, phenology, distribution and habitat. A revised identification key to all Bruguiera taxa is presented, along with a table of comparative diagnostic characters.

An international electronic-only journal on the biodiversity, evolution and biogeography of plants (systematics,
floristics, phylogeny, morphology, anatomy). For floristic studies, the focus is on tropical Africa south of the
Sahara; tropical Southeast Asia with a strong emphasis on Malesia; South America with emphasis on the
Guianas. The language is English.
