REMARKS
Hô. (1999) recorded Begonia decora from Vietnam
but did not cite a specimen or locality. Begonia decora is a narrow endemic confined to a few mountains peaks in Peninsular Malaysia ( Kiew 2005). It is extremely unlikely to occur in Vietnam. This species should therefore be excluded from the begonia flora of Vietnam. Because Hô. does not cite specimens, it is not possible to know what he meant by this taxon.
