Description:
Two new Hanguana species from Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo, are described here. Hanguana
karimatae from Karimata Island, West Kalimantan province, is characterised by a stout habit, prominently oblique
yellow fruits with raised stigma and 1- or 2-seeded fruits. Hanguana nana from Central Kalimantan province is the
smallest species in the genus with the stem entirely covered by leaves, deflexed barely branched infructescences
with only a few fruits, each with a single bowl-shaped seed with a large and incurved appendage. These are the
first descriptions of new Hanguana species from Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo). Colour plates as well as notes
on distribution, ecology, habitat and conservation status are provided.
