Abstract

Two species of Meliaceae, Toona calcicola and Reinwardtiodendron humile are newly added for flora of Thailand. Toona calcicola, a new species from Suan Hin Pha Ngam Forest Park, Loei Province, is described and illustrated. This species is endemic to ridge of limestone hill and characterized by Cycas petraea A.Lindstr. & K.D.Hill and Dracaena cambodiana Pierre ex Gagnep. Since this is the first account of the genus Reinwardtiodendron to the flora of Thailand, the key to the genera of Meliaceae (based on flowers) in Thailand is revised.
