Abstract in another language
Marsdenia R.Br. represents the largest group of Asclepiadoideae in New Caledonia. With five newendemic species described here, and one new combination, the number of Marsdenia species increasesto 18 for New Caledonia. The new species are all restricted to ultramafic substrates. Marsdenia kaalensisMeve, Gâteblé & Liede, sp. nov. is only known from the Mt. Kaala area in northwestern Grande-Terre, and M. weberlingiana Liede, sp. nov. is restricted to one locality at Hô (Houaïlou). In contrast,the other three species (Marsdenia mackeeorum Meve, Gâteblé & Liede, sp. nov., M. neocaledonicaMeve, Gâteblé & Liede, sp. nov. and M. paulforsteri Meve, Gâteblé & Liede, sp. nov.) are fairly widelydistributed and locally common. All new species are fully illustrated, and a distribution map is provided.Moreover, the new combination Marsdenia guillauminiana (P.T.Li) Meve, Gâteblé & Liede,comb. nov. (based on Tylophora guillauminiana P.T.Li) is proposed for this rare endemic, originallydescribed as Tylophora micrantha Guillaumin. Tylophora anisotomoides Schltr., syn. nov., instead, isproposed as a new and additional synonym of Vincetoxicum biglandulosum (Endl.) Kunze.
