The genus Morinda (Rubiaceae) in Thailand


Wirot Kesonbuaaa, Pranom Chantaranothaib,*

 
ABSTRACT:     The genus Morinda (Rubiaceae) is revised and presented with a key to species, descriptions with distributional and ecological data, together with illustrations of some species. Nine species are considered, one of which is divided into two varieties. Two species and one variety are endemic to the country. M. talmyi is typified. M. longifolia and M. pumila are reduced to synonymy with M. pandurifolia and M. tomentosa, respectively.
