INTRODUCTION During a survey of the PT Weda Bay Nickel for their Flora Inventory Programme on Halmahera, Moluccas, Indonesia, many interesting species were collected. Here a summary of some Halma- hera Melastomataceae is presented. Catanthera F. Muell. and Medinilla Gaudich. are new generic records for the island. CATANTHERA F. Muell. In his revision of Catanthera F. Muell. (Melastomataceae) Nayar (1982) gave a map that showed a disjunction in the distribution of the ge- nus between western (Sumatra, Borneo) and east- ern (New Guinea) Malesia, the genus apparently being absent in Celebes, the Moluccas and the Philippines. In the meanwhile collections have come in from Celebes, Morotai and Halmahera (Moluccas) and Palawan (Philippines). In the Dissochaetae there are two whorls of sta- mens, an outer, alternipetalous one, where except for Diplectria (Blume) Rchb., the anthers are always fertile and in case of heteromorphy are the longest ones, and an inner, epipetalous one, which may have smaller anthers, be staminodial, or even absent. In Diplectria the situation is reversed: the alternipetalous stamens are staminodial and the epipetalous are fertile. All species of Catanthera seen follow the usual mode, but the reverse one is present in the Halmahera collection (Bangun et al. 223). There the alternipetalous anthers are still the longest, but they are strap-shaped and staminodial, while the epipetalous although much more com- pact are fertile. Catanthera keris Veldk., spec. nov. � Fig. 1 Petioles 8 − 10 mm long, furfuraceous. Leaf blades elliptic, 5-plinerved, second pair of basal nerves branching off 2 − 3 mm above the basal ones, underneath between the nerves sparsely pu- berulous. Inflorescence cymose, furfuraceous. Hy- panthium in flower 6 − 7 mm wide, shortly furfu- raceous. Mature floral buds ca. 12 mm long. Petals ovate. Anthers very heteromorph. Alternipetalous anthers sterile, strap-shaped, ca. 11 mm long, plec- trum ca. 0.7 mm long, appendages ca. 0.7 mm long. Epipetalous anthers fertile, straight, swollen, hemi-circular in side view, 6 − 6.5 mm long. — Type: Bangun, A ndriamahefarivo, Razakamalala & Mahroji 223. (Holotype: L!, Isotype: BO!, MO). REINWARDTIA 26 [VOL.16 Innovations furfuraceous. Leaf blades 4.5 − 4.7 by 2.3 − 3 cm wide, 1.5 − 2 times as long as wide, base rounded to truncate, apex acute or acuminate, second pair of basal nerves branching off 2−3 mm above the basal ones. Inflorescences fascicled, 2 − 10-flowered, 3.5 − 5 cm long, furfuraceous. Pedicel 10 − 20 mm long. Hypanthium campanulate to urceolate, in flower 5.5 − 6.5 by 6 − 7 mm wide, margin truncate, shortly furfuraceous. Ovary apex glabrous. Extra-ovarian chambers to the base of the ovary. Mature floral buds ca. 12 mm long. Petals ovate, ca. 12 mm long, pink. Anthers eight. Alternipetalous anthers stipitate, ca. 11 mm long. Epipetalous anthers filament glabrous, anthers cinnamon (i.s.); plectrum lanceolate, 1.5 − 2 mm long; lateral appendages auriculiform, ca. 0.6 mm long. Style glabrous. Distribution. Indonesia, Moluccas, Halmahera, Weda Bay, Bukit Limber 00˚ 32’ 41” N, 127˚ 58’ 32” E. Only known from the type. Habitat. Degraded primary forest, open place, 860 m alt. Etymology. The epithet has been der ived fr om the sterile anthers, which to a fertile imagination resemble this Malesian weapon. Notes. Remarkable for the very anisomorphous stamens, the longer ones strap-shaped with patent plectrum and appendages. There is a collection from Morotai, G. Pare-Pare (Kostermans 1243, BO, L) which is very similar, but the L specimen lacks petals and stamens. Phenology. F lower ing in December . Collector’s notes. Liana, 10 m tall. Stem gr ey. Leaves glaucous golden beneath. Peduncle pink. Hypanthium pale green and glaucous golden. Petals, stigma pink. Stamens [prob. staminodes] white, striped yellow. Style white. MEDINILLA Gaudich. Medinilla in Malesia has an estimated number of ca. 215 species, many of which, especially in Celebes, the Lesser Sunda Isles, the Moluccas and New Guinea, are still undescribed (Bodegom & Veldkamp, 2001). Most species have a limited dis- tribution. For the Moluccas 12 species have been recorded, but none yet for Halmahera (Bakhuizen f., 1943). The author of the generic name is Gaudichaud (1826), not De Candolle (1828) as is usually cited (Bodegom & Veldkamp, 2001: 534−537). Remarkably, strongly anisomorphous anthers have not been described for the genus, perhaps because the authors have neglected their presence. A survey is thus much needed, which was beyond the scope of this paper. 1. Medinilla pellita Veldk. & Kar ton., spec. nov. ‒ Fig. 2. MEDINILLA VERRUCIFERA Ohwi, ined. Shrub (terrestrial ?).

F lower ing, fr uiting in September . Collector’s notes. Shr ub, 2 m. Flower s wh ite. Fruits red. Common. Notes. This is a most peculiar species beca use of the pelt of adventitious rootlets. It may not be ruled out that these are caused by ecological factors, e.g. the terrestrial (?) shrub living on waterlogged and anaerobic soil and has to take up water in this way. Unfortunately in the L specimen the larger blades have been cut in half transversally to fit the drying press, so it cannot be ascertained whether the pairs are anisophyllous, how long they were and what the apices look like. Ohwi had labelled the BO duplicate as M. ver- rucifera Ohwi, ined., and also identified Docters van Leeuwen 9055 (Albatros Bivak, along the Mamberamo River) and V ersteeg 1016 (Van Weel’s Kamp, Merauke) from New Guinea as such. The legendary pre-identifier Nedi added Anang 268, also from Halmahera, to it. These col- lections were not seen by Bakhuizen F. (1943). We have taken the liberty to change Ohwi’s manuscript name, as there are several species with warty bark, but none, as far as we know, with such a pelt of rootlets. 2.

During searches to identify the current collec- tions, it was noted that M. intermedia Blume (1831), an endemic from Java, has a later homo- nym: H. interm edia H. Perrier (1932; 1951) from Madagascar. The two have been much confused on the internet. We here rename the latter in hon- our of its discoverer and describer, Joseph Marie Henri Alfred (“Henri”) Perrier de la Bâthie (1873−1958), outstanding explorer of Madagascar (Dorr, 1997: 338).
