Abstract
Abstract Stone, R.D. (2022). Ten new species of Memecylon (Melastomataceae) from Madagascar. Candollea 77: 81–103. In English, English and French abstracts. Memecylon L. (Melastomataceae, Olisbeoideae) is a widespread paleotropical genus of forest shrubs and small trees, and is one of the ten most species-rich genera of woody plants in Madagascar. All of the Malagasy species are endemic to the island, and most of them are known from just one or two sites. As part of ongoing work towards a comprehensive taxonomic revision, ten new Malagasy species are described and illustrated here: M. arenicola R.D. Stone, M. conjugens R.D. Stone, M. draconopterum R.D. Stone, M. fissuricola R.D. Stone, M. insolitum R.D. Stone, M. linearifolium R.D. Stone, M. longipes R.D. Stone, M. majus R.D. Stone, M. ourantherum R.D. Stone, and M. ultramaficum R.D. Stone. The conservation status of each species is provisionally assessed in accordance with the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria. Received on July 26, 2021.

期刊介绍:
Candollea is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes original scientific papers, preferably in English but also in French. Spanish language manuscripts will be evaluated only if linked to scientific projects involving the Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de Genève. Successful submissions will be in the fields of evolution, molecular systematics, morphology-anatomy, nomenclature, taxonomy, or vegetation analyses of plants. Reviews and articles on the history of botanical collections are welcome. New distribution records lacking pertinent analyses will not be considered. Manuscripts dealing with nomenclature alone will be considered only if clearly related to the Geneva library or herbarium (G). Authors are encouraged to deposit duplicates of their material, especially nomenclatural types, at G.
