Bruy 8115 (holo-, P [P00864939!] , iso-, G, MPU [MPU312616!]), NOU [NOU090534!]).</p><p>ETYMOLOGY. — The species is named after the small urn (Latin: urceus) shaped fresh flowers, with a small apical opening (Figs 1C; 2E).</p><p>DISTRIBUTION. — Garcinia urceolata, sp. nov. ranges from the Tchamba River valley at its southern limit to Mandjélia in the north, and occurs from 520 to 950 m elevation (Fig. 3).</p><p>HABITAT AND ECOLOGY. — The species is restricted to dense humid forest on non-ultramafic substrate.</p><p>PHENOLOGY. — Buds were observed in August, flowers in October- November, green fruit in November and January-February, and mature fruits in March-April.</p><p>CONSERVATION STATUS. — Garcinia urceolata, sp. nov. is known from eight subpopulations, three of which occupy two adjacent 2 × 2 km grid cell giving an EOO of 1185 km ² and an AOO of 48 km ². Two of the subpopulations occur in North Province in the “ Réserve de nature sauvage du mont Panié ”, the other six subpopulations falling outside protected areas. The species can be locally abundant (Roches Ouaième) but is threatened by bushfires and invasive browsers in at least some localities (respectively Tchamba, Roches Ouaième, Atéou and Panié). These threats are responsible for an estimated decline in habitat quality and the number of mature individuals of this species. In Tchamba and Roches Ouaième, the species was observed both in burnt edge and heartwood forests (unlikely bushfires). Fire being the main threat to this species, the number of locations (sensu IUCN 2012) is therefore 10. We consequently assign a preliminary conservation status of Vulnerable (VU B1ab(iii,v)+2ab(iii,v)) to G. urceolata, sp. nov. using the IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN 2012).</p><p>VERNACULAR NAME. — Unknown.</p><p>ADDITIONAL MATERIAL EXAMINED. — New Caledonia: Vallée de la Tchamba, exploitation Létocart, 21°0’20”S, 165°14’2”E, 520 m, 13.I.2009, Lisière de forêt dense humide, fr., L.

Leaf blade obovate to widely obovate, (17-)43-60(-89) × (11-)16-21(-34) mm, chartaceous to slightly coriaceous, longitudinal black lines on both surfaces sometimes present in sicco.; base attenuate, forming an acute angle of (19-)33-45(-76) degrees; margin slightly to strongly revolute, sometimes with a thin hyaline fringe; apex rounded, rarely slightly obtuse and forming an angle of (69-)92-113(-124) degrees; midvein slightly prominent adaxially, strongly prominent abaxially; lateral veins more or less visible on both surfaces in herb., 8-12 pairs, the basal veins ascending to c. half of the blade length; petiole slightly canaliculate, (4.1-)6.1-8(-9.1) × (0.8-)1.0-1.2(-3.8) mm. Flowers solitary or grouped in axillary fascicles, usually borne just under the leafy part of the twigs, corolla urceolate, pale green in both sexes. Flower bracts ovate-triangular, 2 mm long × 1.7 mm wide, membranous, brownish, quickly caducous. Male flowers 1-4 per inflorescence; pedicel 2-4 × 2-2.5 mm. Sepals 4, glabrous, two external ones obovate, 4 × 4 mm, two internal ones widely-elliptic to oblong, 5-6 × 3-3.5 mm, 2 mm thick, margin not or only slightly membranous. Petals 4, elliptic, 4-5 × 3-3.5 mm, fleshy, apex obtuse and truncate. Stamens 20, filaments fused into a distinct column 1 mm high, anthers c. 0.5 mm wide; rudimentary pistil conical, c. 1 × 1 mm, truncate at summit. Female flowers solitary, pedicel 1.5-2 mm long, 2-2.5 mm in diameter. Sepals 4, pale green, two external ones widely ovate, c. 3 × 3-4 mm, two internal ovate, 3 × 2.5 mm, margin not or only slightly membranous. Petals ovate, 4 × 2.5-3 mm, fleshy, connate in basal quarter. Staminodes 0. Ovary oblate, c. 1.5 × 3 mm, glabrous, 4-locular, vertically grooved; stigma widely elliptic, warty, pale yellow. Fruit globose-pyroid, 23 × 15-21 mm in fresh material (crushed in herb. 35-123 × 19-53 mm), dehiscence not observed (but expected), the pericarp 3.5- 6 mm thick, surface smooth, fleshy, probably green when mature, yellow inside. Calyx persistent. Peduncle c. 2 mm × 3 mm. Seeds 1-4, ellipsoid, sometimes slightly compressed laterally, c. 18 × 6-7 mm, surface with irregular longitudinal lines, brown-blackish, tegument thin, fleshy and orangish.</p><p>TAXONOMIC NOTE</p><p>Garcinia urceolata, sp. nov. probably belongs to Sect. Brindonia (Thouars) Choisy, but further studies, including phylogenetic ones, are needed.</p><p>SPECIES RECOGNITION</p><p>With its small leaves and its general architecture, Garcinia urceolata, sp. nov. could only be confused with G. virgata Vieill. ex Guillaumin. Table 1 compares the main morphological characteristics of these two species. Herbarium specimens without reproductive organs can be difficult to identify. Leaf shape in G. urceolata, sp. nov. is usually obovate or broadly obovate, with an apex rounded, obtuse to sub-obtuse, whereas the leaves of G. virgata are elliptic with an acute apex, but intermediates exist; the size of the petiole makes it easier to distinguish the material, even if some values overlap. The colour of the bark and of the sapwood are apparently reliable characters for identifying sterile material, and should be carefully noted in the field. Moreover, G. urceolata, sp. nov. has been recorded from 520 to 950 m in elevation while G. virgata occurs at lower elevations (50 to c. 650 m). Some individuals of G. urceolata, sp. nov. have been observed in November bearing both open flowers and almost mature fruits (See Munzinger et al. 8115; Fig. 2E; G) while specimens of G. virgata have only flowers or fruits, never both. Variation in the shape of the fruit (globose to pyroid) might be related to the maturity of the fruit, but this remains to be verified.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5C606816FFCBF90BFF3DDA6B239CC93D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Alternatively, the author may have noticed the black lines often present on the leaf-blade (especially on the type) and used virgate in its other sense, i.e. “streaked or striped” (Short &amp; George 2013).</p><p>DISTRIBUTION. — Garcinia virgata is known from Haute-Ouenghi in the south to Forêt Frouin in the north of Grande-Terre (Fig. 3).</p><p>HABITAT AND ECOLOGY. — This species can be locally quite common in dense humid forest, especially along forest edges, but it also grows in drier conditions, in what some authors call “mesic forest” (Munzinger &amp; Gâteblé 2017), currently included within dense humid forests sensu Jaffré et al. (2012), which still need to be more clearly characterized (Jaffré et al. 2008). Garcinia virgata occurs from 50 to c. 650 m in elevation, on non-ultramafic substrate, and is probably under-collected.</p><p>PHENOLOGY. — Buds were collected in October-November, and flowers in (end of October-) November and December, while the end of fruiting was observed in March-April.</p><p>CONSERVATION STATUS. — Garcinia virgata is known from 12 subpopulations, three of which occupy two adjacent 2 × 2 km grid cell, and one of which occupy three adjacent grids. The calculated EOO is 2604 km ² and the AOO is 68 km ². In North Province, one subpopulation occurs in the “ Réserve de nature sauvage du massif de l’Aoupinié ” and another one is found in the “ Réserve de nature sauvage du mont Panié ”. In South Province, one subpopulation occurs in “ Parc des Grandes Fougères ” reserve. The other 9 sub-populations fall outside protected areas. The plant can be locally very abundant (Mandjélia, Katalupaik, Farino) and, although some sub-populations may be threatened by bushfires and/or introduced browsers, we counted 12 locations (sensu IUCN). Since the number of locations is a few more than 10 and the species is threatened in some sites, we assign Garcinia virgata a preliminary status of Near Threatened (NT) using the IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN 2012).</p><p>VERNACULAR NAME. — Unknown.</p><p>ADDITIONAL MATERIAL EXAMINED. — New Caledonia.

Moreover, in this paper, Guillaumin (1942) lists many species in different families, spelling out the genus name in full for the first species listed and then abbreviating it with its initial for all subsequent species, including for new species or combinations. Thus, it is clear that the “ C. ” in Guillaumin’s protologue is nothing more than a typographical error that is to be correct (as per Article 60.1. of the Shenzhen Code; Turland et al. 2018). As a consequence, the new combination published by Govaerts (2018) was superfluous.</p><p>As the material is heterogeneous, we have selected a lectotype, choosing P04667134 which includes a hand drawing of a dissected flower.</p><p>Prenylated xanthones and tocotrienols were isolated from the stem bark of Garcinia virgata (Merza et al. 2004). The voucher for this analysis is Dumontet 151, wrongly cited as collected in the forest of Frouin in Mandjélia by Merza et al. (2004), whereas the specimen label indicates Aoupinié. We were able to verify the specimen and confirm that it was correctly assigned to this species.</p><p>AMPLIFIED DESCRIPTION</p><p>As the species newly described in this paper was previously included in the little-known G. virgata, we propose to emend the description of the latter, in order to clearly distinguish between the two species.</p><p>Trees up to 8 m tall, bark pale brown to grey, sapwood pinkish, young branchlets flattened to quadrangular, slightly channeled, pruinose; latex yellow in trunk and twigs; all parts glabrous. Leaf blade obovate, narrowly obovate or elliptic, (33-)39-62(-75) × (5-)13-19(-34) mm, chartaceous to slightly coriaceous, dots or longitudinal black lines (up to 3 mm long) usually present in sicco.; base cuneate to attenuate, forming an angle of (19-)39-50(-71) degrees; margin flat to slightly revolute; apex acute to rounded, forming an angle of (49-)66-79(-106) degrees; midvein flat above, prominent below, lateral veins obvious on both surfaces in sicco., 8-10 pairs, the basal veins strongly ascending (to half or more of the blade length); petioles flat above, rounded below, (1.9-)3.1-4.3(-7.6) × (0.6-)0.9-1.3(-1.8) mm. Flowers solitary or grouped in axillary fascicles, mostly just under the leafy part of the twigs, corolla cup-like, yellowish on both sexes. Flower bracts round to narrowly elliptic, 1 × 0.5-1 mm. Male flowers 1-7 per inflorescence; pedicel 2-2.5 × 1 mm. Sepals 4, glabrous, two external ones slightly oblate, 2.5-3 × 3-3.5 mm, margin membranous, two internal ones elliptic, c. 2.5 × 2 mm. Petals 4, elliptic, 2-2.5 × 1.8-2 mm, fleshy, apex obtuse. Stamens c. 30, not forming a distinct column, anthers c. 0.5 mm wide; rudimentary pistil conical, c. 1 × 0.5 mm. Female flowers 1-3 per inflorescence, sessile or pedicel up to 2 mm long, 1 mm in diameter. Sepals 4, pale green, two external ones orbicular, c. 3-3.5 × 3-3.5 mm, two internal ones elliptic, c. 3 × 2 mm, margin membranous. Petals 4, 3 × 2 mm, fleshy, connate in basal half. Staminodes 0-2, slender, sagittate, filament to 1.5 mm. Ovary globose, c. 2 × 2 mm, glabrous, 4-locular, vertically grooved; stigma 4-angled, lobes warty, pale yellow. Fruit narrowly obovoid, 11-18 × 8-12 mm, smooth, dehiscent apically by four valves, pale brown when opening, the pericarp 0.5-1 mm thick. Calyx persistent. Peduncle c. 2-4 × 3 mm. Seeds 1-4, ellipsoid, sometimes slightly compressed laterally, 8-11 × 3-5 mm, surface ruminate, brown-blackish.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5C606816FFC6F90FFC28DA2B27C2C91D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
