Note:
Heterosmilax sumatrensis
and
H. borneensis
were published on the same page of
de Candolle's (1878)
monograph.
Koyama (1984)
treated the former as a synonym of
H. borneensis
because the
type
specimen of
H. borneensis
better exhibited the characteristics of the species. This epithet cannot be used, however, because of
S. borneensis
de Candolle (1878: 202)
, so the other epithet must be used instead.
