Abstract
A new species of Pothos is described and illustrated. This species is very similar to Pothosphilippinensis (sheathing and leaf morphology) but differs by the inflorescence and flowers. It is closely related also to P.kingii by the deep purple inflorescence, but differs in having longer peduncle, broadly ovate-concave to cucullate spathe (which is deep wine-red when fresh to purplish-black when senescing), and the spadix that is 7/10th the entire length of the spathe.
