Index of names and types of Hoya (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) of Borneo

Abstract

Types of all Hoya species occurring in Borneo and their synonyms are indicated and clarified. Forty-six lectotypes, nine neotypes and five epitypes are designated.

Hoya peninsularis (Apocynaceae, Asclepiadoideae), a new species from Peninsular Malaysia, and notes on Hoya maingayi and Gongronema wrayi

“…King and Gamble () cited the examined material of Gongronema wrayi as ‘Perak, Relan Tojor, Wray 2243'.

Vegetative Propagation of Hoya imperialis and Hoya coronaria by Stem Cutting and Micropropagation

“…2013 ). Borneo comprises a centre of diversity for Hoya , with 71 Hoya species and one subspecies recently listed ( Rodda 2017 ). The full extent of Hoya diversity in Borneo remains difficult to determine ( Choy 2015 ), mainly due to the remoteness and underexploration of rainforests within the island ( Lin et al .…”
