Detailed colour plates are given alongside the main characters for distinguishing this species from the two most similar species in Singapore, Hanguana rubinea and H. triangulata. The seeds of Hanguana podzolicola are described for the first time. A local conservation assessment is given. As no original material of Hanguana podzolicola could be traced, a neotype is designated here. Following a recent clarification of several historical Hanguana names it is noted here that the correct name for the large helophytic stoloniferous species often cultivated in Singapore under the name Hanguana malayana is Hanguana anthelminthica. An updated key to Hanguana species in Singapore is provided.","PeriodicalId":321970,"journal":{"name":"The Gardens' Bulletin, Singapore","volume":"270 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123418403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
