Abstract

Abstract—Medinilla(Melastomataceae) is a large paleotropical genus with the Philippines as one of its greatest centers of diversity. However, exceptionally few species are recorded from Palawan. Notes on theMedinillaspecies of Palawan and an identification key are provided. Ten species are recorded, double the previous number. Two species are newly described:Medinilla simplicymosaandMedinilla ultramaficola. TheMedinillaof Palawan remain poorly understood.
