Abstract

Garcinia minutiflora (Clusiaceae), previously known only from Peninsular Malaysia, is reported as a new record from dry evergreen forest on limestone hills in Phangnga and Krabi Provinces, Peninsular Thailand. A detailed morphological description, illustrations and a distribution map of the species are presented, along with information on distribution, specimens examined, habitat, conservation assessment, phenology and vernacular name. In addition, G. minutiflora is lectotypified.
