Neo-uvaria merrillii (C.B.Rob.) Chaowasku , comb. nov.
Basionym:— Mitrephora merrillii C.B.Rob. (1908: 67) View in CoL . Griffithianthus merrillii (C.B.Rob.) W.H.Brown ex Merrill (1915: 231) . Mitrephora ferruginea Merrill (1904: 16) View in CoL , nom. illeg. TYPE:—THE PHILIPPINES. Luzon, Bataan Province: Mt. Mariveles, January 1904, Merrill 3728 (PNH (destroyed), lectotype (here designated) NY!, isotypes BM!, P!), in fruit.
Observations: —Originally, the syntypes of this species consist of disparate elements as stated by Merrill (1915) and Weerasooriya & Saunders (2010). Nevertheless, no one has designated a lectotype, therefore it is done here. Neo-uvaria merrillii primarily differs from N. acuminatissima View in CoL in having usually (broadly) wedgeshaped leaf base (whilst usually obtuse to rounded in N. acuminatissima View in CoL ), larger sepals (4.5–5.0 × 4.0– 4.5 mm in N. merrillii vs. ca. 2.6 × 2.9 mm in N. acuminatissima View in CoL ) and wider monocarps (ca. 2.2 cm wide in N. merrillii vs. ca. 1.7 cm wide in N. acuminatissima View in CoL ).
