In recent years, this question has come to prominence, for example, due to the increasing rate with which new national taxon records are appearing in popular orchid field guides. The scientifically deficient publication of such “new records” precludes the alleged occurrences in Thailand from becoming formally accepted in the scientific literature – and the species in question from being considered for conservation in Thailand. To demonstrate the problem in detail, we present the case of Dendrobium ruckeri . First, we outline the historical introduction and occurrence of this species in the Thai botanical literature, and then provide a full taxonomic account, in effect demonstrating what we think a proper “new record” account should include. To avoid continued confusion over scientifically deficient new records, we urge non-professional botanists to properly document any new national record, supported by voucher specimens, and to publish their find in collaboration with appropriate professional botanists before including the newly discovered taxon in a field guide,","PeriodicalId":37958,"journal":{"name":"Thai Forest Bulletin (Botany)","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73527275","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}

Four new species, M. anomalocarpa, M. chiangraiensis, M. gardneri, and M. maxiflora, are described. Meiogyne anomalocarpa has the widest distribution of any Meiogyne species in Thailand, but the other three species are narrowly distributed. Meiogyne anomalocarpa and M. maxiflora have the axillary inflorescences typical of the genus, but in M. chiangraiensis and M. gardneri the inflorescences are flagelliform and arise from the lower trunk, a morphology previously unreported from members of this genus. The presence of M. chiangraiensis in northern Thailand extends the range of the genus significantly northward. Meiogyne caudata is reported as new to the flora of Thailand. Several Meiogyne specimens from southernmost Thailand previously identified as M. virgata in the past by various workers were found to be more similar to M. kanthanensis, recently described from Perak, Peninsular Malaysia.
