M. Rodda; N. Simonsson. Contribution to a revision of Hoya (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) of Papuasia. Part II: eight new species, one new subspecies. 10 November 2022. pp. 139–155.

Hoya of Papuasia, Part II continues the regional taxonomic work of Michele Rodda and Nadhanielle Simonsson. Published online on 10 November 2022 in Blumea 67(2): 139–155, it follows their 2017 Part I.

What the paper contributes

The authors publish eight new species and one new subspecies from New Guinea. They also provide a full description and illustrations of Hoya leucantha and designate its lectotype. That treatment concerns an existing name, rather than another new species.

The study combines herbarium material with more recent collections and observations. Its taxonomic and conservation conclusions remain dated findings to compare with later evidence.

Finding the evidence

  • Pages 139–141: research context and methods.
  • Pages 141–142: the new description of Hoya leucantha.
  • Pages 141–154: new taxonomic treatments and their illustrations.
  • Page 155: acknowledgements and references.

For image research, keep a reported field observation separate from a published photograph unless their provenance is explicitly connected. The paper’s figure credits identify individual contributors.
