Taxonomic and palynological studies on Arisaema Martius (Araceae) from the Western Ghats, India, distinguish two taxa belonging to section Tortuosa Engler. Arisaema sahyadricum S. R. Yadav, K. S. Patil \& Bachulkar var. ghaticum Sardesai, S. P. Gaikwad \& S. R. Yadav, a recently described variety in 2006, is treated here at the species level as A. ghaticum Punekar \& Kumaran. Arisaema sivadasanii S. R. Yadav, K. S. Patil \& Janarthanam, previously considered as a synonym of A. tortuosum (Wallich) Schott, is recognized here as the subspecies A. tortuosum subsp. sivadasanii (S. R. Yadav, K. S. Patil \& Janarthanam) Punekar \& Kumaran. Taxonomic implications are discussed and a key to the Arisaema taxa of the North Western Ghats is provided.

Arisaema danzhuense T. S. Yi \& H. Li (sect. Trisecta) is described as a new species from the Gaoligong Mountains, northwestern Yunnan, China. It is closely related to A. propinquum Schott but differs in having a greenish spathe with white stripes and a round apex with an acumen 5 mm long, a greenish petiole and peduncle densely verruculose with whitish spinules, and the terminal leaflet with an acute apex.

Arisaema menghaiense J. T. Yin, H. Li \& Z. F. Xu. (sect. Pistillata Engler) is described and illustrated as a new species of Araceae from South Yunnan, China. It is closely related to Arisaema lobatum Engler in having a globose tuber, trifoliolate leaf blades, a unisexual spadix, and an erect cylindrical appendix. It differs in its epiphytic habit, the inflorescence that appears before the leaf, a green (female) or pale purple (male) spathe with a filiform acumen ca. 60 cm (male) or 25 cm (female) long, a pale green, erect, sessile cylindrical spadix appendix with a few acute neuter flowers basally and anther thecae opening by an apical slit.
