Abstract:
Two new Anadendrum from Sarawak, A. calcicola and A. muluensis, are described and illustrated. By the leaf lamina abaxially glaucous they are most similar to A. affine (Sumatera). Anadendrum calcicola differs from A. affine in the bimodal gorgonoid synflorescence, and the stamen filaments not extending at male anthesis. Anadendrum muluensis also shares the character of the anthers not exserted at male anthesis, but differs from both A. affine and A. calcicola by flowering on the tips of elongated shoots, and by the consistently cordate lamina bases.
