One hundred and fourteen species belonging to 29 genera of Araceae are recorded from Sabah: Aglaonema Schott, Alocasia (Schott) G.Don, Amorphophallus Blume ex Decne., Amydrium Schott, Anadendrum Schott, Arisaema Mart., Bucephalandra Schott, Colobogynium Schott, Colocasia Schott, Cryptocoryne Fisch. ex Wydler, Cyrtosperma Griff., Epipremnum Schott, Gamogyne N.E.Br., Homalomena Schott, Lasia Lour., Lemna L., Nabalu S.Y.Wong & P.C.Boyce, Ooia S.Y.Wong & P.C.Boyce, Phymatarum M.Hotta, Pistia L., Pothos L., Rhaphidophora Hassk., Pursegloveia S.Y.Wong, S.L.Low & P.C.Boyce, Rhynchopyle Engl., Schismatoglottis Zoll. & Moritzi, Scindapsus Schott, Spirodela Schleid., Tawaia S.Y.Wong, S.L.Low & P.C.Boyce, Typhonium Schott, and Wolffia Horkel ex Schleid. Two genera, Cryptocoryne and Phymatarum, are newly recorded from Sabah. One species, Pothos leptostachyus Schott, is newly recorded from Sabah. One genus, Tawaia, and 50 species are endemic to Sabah. Taxonomic notes, an identification key to genera, and comments on habitat and ecology of the species are presented.

“…Epiphytic plants commonly found in Bornean heath forests include orchids, climbing ferns, and the Araceae (Ashton 2014;Cicuzza et al 2020;Wong et al 2020;Yudistira et al 2022). Epiphytic orchids that anchor themselves to tree trunks are more diverse than terrestrial orchids growing on the ground, mainly because the nutrient-deficient, acidic, sandy heath forest soils are not favorable to the growth of terrestrial orchids (Wood and van der Ent 2012; Suetsugu et al 2017Suetsugu et al , 2018Juiling et al 2020).…”

Abstract. Ikbal IM, Din HHM, Tuah WH, Jaafar SM, Ahmad N, Sukri RS. 2023. Review: Diversity, structure, and community composition of Bornean heath forest with a focus on Brunei Darussalam. Biodiversitas 24: 2814-2829. Tropical heath forests, a unique lowland forest ecosystem with high conservation value, are increasingly threatened by disturbances. Heath forests are characterized by trees of short stature and the presence of highly acidic, sandy soils with poor nutrient content. Bornean heath forests are widely studied for their diversity, structure, and community composition and are known to support endemics of high conservation value. Environmental factors and soil properties, such as topography, water availability, and nutrient status, are known to influence tree species diversity and forest structure of Bornean forests. However, factors influencing their community composition, including the role of seedling communities in influencing heath forest communities, are still not well understood. In particular, studies of tree diversity and community composition of heath forests in Brunei Darussalam have revealed high endemism and the presence of species with high conservation value. Anthropogenic threats to Bornean heath forests highlight the urgent need for an increased understanding of these forests and prioritization of their conservation. Increased insights into the ecological preferences of heath forest species are crucial for the successful restoration of degraded heath forests. The intact forest ecosystems of Brunei could provide opportunities for further ecological research on the plant communities found in these unique forests.
