Abstract

A new species of Friesodielsia (Annonaceae), Friesodielsia formosa, is described from Borneo. A large woody climber of lowland forests, the species has been collected from Sabah, Sarawak and Kalimantan. A new combination in Friesodielsia is made for Oxymitra grandifolia Merr. which is resurrected from the synonymy of Friesodielsia latifolia (Hook.f. & Thomson) Steenis. The name Oxymitra grandifolia is lectotypified.
