本文發表產於婆羅洲砂勞越的天南星科一新屬Hestia S.Y. Wong & P.C. Boyce模式種為Hestialongifolia (Ridl.) S.Y. Wong & P.C. Boyce (Schismatoglottis longifolia Ridl.為其同物異名)。此外,結合分子與形態分析的資料,我們恢復了Apoballis Schott屬的地位,而將12種原棣屬於Schismatoglottis的植物學名做了新組合處理。本文並提供落檐族(Schismatoglottideae sensu Wong & Boyce)的檢索表與Hestialongifolia的彩色圖版以資辨識。
Hestia S.Y. Wong & P.C. Boyce is described as a new genus from Sarawak typified by Hestia longifolia (Ridl.) S.Y. Wong & P.C. Boyce (syn. Schismatoglottis longifolia Ridl.), and based on combined molecular and morphological analyses the genus Apoballis Schott is resurrected. A key to the Schismatoglottideae sensu Wong & Boyce is presented, and Hestia is illustrated.
