The name Heritiera macrophylla has generally been attributed to Kurz in a publication of 1873. However, two validations of the name were published in 1845. That by Tenore is here adopted as the correct name for the species and a neotype designated. Neotypes also are designated for H. macrophylla Wall. ex Voigt, and H. macrophylla Wall. ex Kurz.

Allium calyanense Balos & Geçit (Amaryllidaceae) is described as a new species from Van Province, eastern Anatolia, Turkey. Diagnostic characteristics, a comprehensive description, photographs of the species and a distribution map are provided. Based on morphology, it belongs to Allium subgen. Polyprason sect. Scorodon. It resembles A. anacoleum, A. capitellatum and A. microspathum but morphologically differs from them by e.g. bulb size, stem length, leaf sheath, leaf shape, perigon colour, size and colour of outer and inner tepals, and different filaments.

Verbascum ali-nihatii A. Duran sp. nova (Scrophulariaceae) is described from the Sadağı Canyon (Bursa Province) in western Anatolia, Turkey. It is morphologically similar to V. levanticum but differs from it by having taller stems and different basal leaves, corolla, filament, capsule and indumentum. SEM photographs of pollen and seed features are provided. Following IUCN criteria and categories, the new species is assessed as Endangered.

Artemisia dracunculus subsp. ladakhensis L. Ali, A.A. Khuroo & A.H. Ganie (Asteraceae) is described here as a new subspecies from Nubra Valley, Ladakh (Trans-Himalaya), India. It can be distinguished from A. dracunculus by several characters such as presence of taproot; sessile leaves that are undivided (but occasionally the middle cauline leaves are trilobed), glossy, dark green on both surfaces and with an auriculate base; subglobose capitula; auriculate and glabrous bracteoles; conical, glabrous receptacle; 4-seriate phyllaries, with the outermost phyllary linear-lanceolate; 3–4-dentate marginal female floret corolla; and obovoid achenes.

Curcuma nepalensis M. Sabu, Kasaju & S. Subedi (Zingiberaceae) is described from Surkhet District of Nepal and illustrated. It resembles especially C. aurantiaca in having red bracts, a similar rhizome and yellow flowers, but differs from the latter by its shorter petiole, smaller labellum and white, calcarate anthers.

Onosma deltiphylla Attar, Mirtadz. & Sotoodeh and O. humilis Attar, Sotoodeh & Mirtadz. (Boraginaceae) are described as new species from Iran. Morphologically the closest species to O. deltiphylla are O. microcarpa and O. sabalanica, while O. humilis is very distinct due to its very small size, and its closest relative is believed to be O. nana. Morphological traits distinguishing these species from the congeners include the shape of the leaves under the inflorescence and the size of the corolla.

Miliusa majestatis Damth., Sinbumr. & Chaowasku (Annonaceae), a new species from southern Thailand, is described and illustrated. Based on molecular phylogenetic analysis using up to seven plastid DNA regions (matK, ndhF, rbcL and ycf1 exons; trnL intron; psbA-trnH and trnL-trnF intergenic spacers) and including, among others, 35 accessions (representing 34 species) of Miliusa, the new species belongs to one of the four unnamed major clades in the genus. Within that clade and in the genus in general, M. majestatis is unique in having constricted inner petals and small basal openings between adjacent inner petals. Its conservation status is provisionally assessed as Data Deficient (DD).

Hedychium wangmoense F.J. Mou & X. Hu (Zingiberaceae), a new species from southwest Guizhou Province, China, is described and illustrated, including the information on its phenology, distribution, habitat, and conservation status. Hedychium wangmoense is morphologically most similar to H. forrestii by having involute bracts, large labella and wide lateral staminodes, but can be distinguished from it by its orange-pink and faintly fragrant flowers (vs. white and fragrant flowers), longer corolla tubes, wider lateral staminodes, larger labella, longer stamens, as well as glabrous bracts (vs. pilose bracts). A key to species of Hedychium in China is also provided.
