Kew Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

This paper presents an account of Licuala Wurmb in Borneo based on herbarium studies and the author’s own fieldwork. The revision enumerates 46 species of Licuala found in the island of Borneo. Of these, 26 are new species and a further two are new varieties. Forty-two are Bornean endemics, reperesenting 91% endemism in Licuala on the island. A key to the species is provided and an index of specimens examined is included. Conservation assessments have also been made for all of the taxa found in Borneo. Twenty-eight taxa (57%) are threatened.

Acknowledgements

I am grateful for support from the British High Commission’s Chevening Scholarships Scheme: Royal Society — Malaysian Fellowship, which supported the study between January and June 2000. Without the Fellowship, it would have been difficult to complete this revision. I am also very grateful to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (K) for providing the necessary institutional help and support while I was there. Dr John Dransfield and his lovely wife Soejatmi gave constant help and encouragement during my stay at K. John further provided the translation for the Latin diagnoses. I wish also to express my appreciation to Dr William J. Baker for his help and good company while working in the Palm Room at Kew. I also wish to thank the curators of the following herbaria that provided loans and access to herbarium material during the study: AAU, BH, BM, BO, BR, BRUN, CAVA, CP, E, FI, K, L, PNH, SAN, SAR and SING. My sincere thanks to Lucy Smith and Joseph Pao for the illustration of the plates. I also wish to thank Wendy Yong who helped prepare the distribution maps for the conservation assessments and Dato’ Dr Abd. Latif Mohmod, the Director-General of the Forest Research Institute Malaysia for supporting botanical work in the institute. Finally, I would like to thank the two reviewers who have made constructive comments to improve the manuscript.
