| Bazziana is a richly developed genus of Hepaticae, as compared to other hepatics represented by large and conspicuous plants of a creeping habit, with ineubous leaves and dichotomously branched shoots, which adhere to the substratum by many flagelliform branches, which are provided with reduced leaves and arise from the axils of underleaves. After the author had collected material of some 20 species in West Java, he attempted to get some knowledge of the whole genus as it occurs in Java, and of the differences from the Bazzania flora of other islands in the Malaysian region. This study is presented here as a preliminary one, and as a forerunner to a fuller treatment of the genus for the whole Malaysian region. Some species are still only known from scanty... |

| The family as here circumscribed covers the genera Mitrastema (1 species), Rafflesia (13), and Rhizanthes (2), all parasitic plants. The logo of Flora Malesiana is based on Rafflesia and is found on most of our publications. The general part of the treatment covers 10 pages and includes paragraphs on palynology by R.W.J.M. van der Ham, and on phytochemistry by R. Hegnauer. Family, genera, and Malesian species are described and annotated. Keys to the genera and species are given. Under Rafflesia a historical review of the discovery of this remarkable genus is given, and also a paragraph on ex situ cultivation. The name Rafflesia titan Jack is considered to be an incompletely known species. One new combination is formally made, on p. 23: Rafflesia arnoldii... |

| Red merantis (Shorea subgen. Rubroshorea) are the most important commercial trees of the Dipterocarpaceae. In Sumatra at least 23 of the 55 species of Shorea belong to this group. Other groups are the Yellow merantis, White merantis, and the Meranti balau. We here give a key to the Red merantis based on characters of bark, twigs, and leaves. Some information on the distribution of the species in and outside the island has been added. We have found it difficult with the data available in the published record to make distributions as detailed as possible. Desch (1936, 1941) and Symington (1943) have divided Shorea Gaertn. into four groups based on timber and field characters, respectively. These groups were treated as subgenera by Meijer (1963), who gave the... |

| Dr. W. Meijer, who is Dutch-born, worked in Indonesia from 1951 to 1958, first at Bogor, then at Pajakumbuh, Sumatra, and was Forest Botanist in Sabah for several years, revisited Indonesia with a National Science Foundation travel grant under an NSF-AID (Agency for International Development) program for Scientists and Engineers in Economic Development. The University of Kentucky Research Foundation covered part of the travel costs in Indonesia together with the Regional Center for Tropical Biology (BIOTROP) in Bogor, and Weyerhaeuser Timber Co., which is now also financing the printing at U.K. of a guide on trees in Indonesia which should be an excellent tool for better training of foresters in Dendrology (tree knowledge). The Japanese Sumitomo Timber... |
