Full Text

Recent and on-going fieldwork in Sarawak continues to reveal a wealth of novel aroid species and has led to the rediscovery of numerous others known from fewer than five collections. One such recent discovery was that of Hapaline appendiculata Ridl., an aroid known from just three previous collections, all fragmentary, and thus seemingly representing one of the rarest aroids in Borneo.
