    Abstract Determining the correct conservation status of a species provides fundamental and critical information for species conservation policies. However, species traits and limited research efforts might decrease the accuracy of conservation assessments. Scleria sumatrensis has been considered a regionally extinct sedge plants in Taiwan, and the only, previous record of this species was from a collection provided by Urbain Faurie in 1914. More than one hundred years after Faurie’s record, we confirm the current occurrence of S. sumatrensis in Taiwan via morphological and molecular authentications in the present study. The morphological details of S. sumatrensis are provided based on the descriptions and illustrations. The conservation status for this species is reassigned to the Critically Endangered (CR) category. Further conservation efforts and research on S. sumatrensis are also discussed.

    Abstract Tropidia namasiae C. K. Liao, T. P. Lin & M. S. Tang, a new species of Tropidia Lindl. (Orchidaceae, Epidendroideae, Tropidieae) from the Namasia District in southwestern Taiwan, is described and illustrated. The species is mainly characterized by its subopposite and ovate to lanceolate leaves and dorsal sepals (3.5–4 mm), the smallest observed among species of Tropidia in Taiwan. The new species is closely related to T. angustifolia C. L. Yeh & C. S. Leou, but differs in leaf shape, size, and number as well as the number of flowers per raceme. Morphological similarities between these two species can be seen in the shapes of the floral lip and column, as well as lengths of the leaf blades. A key to the six species of Tropidia in Taiwan is also provided.

    Abstract A phytosociological survey was carried out in the middle and upper watershed of the Nan-Tze-Shian stream in southwestern Taiwan in order to determine the relationship between vegetation and environmental factors. Through the use of the tabular comparison method, a hierarchical vegetation classification was established. Detrended Correspondence Analysis (DCA) was applied to the data to clarify the variation of the 70 plots and search for a relationship with 5 environmental variables. The results show that the distribution of vegetation types is responding to the elevation and Whole Light Sky space (WLS). Three alliances and 9 associations were distinguished and described: (I) Cyclobalanopsis stenophylloides alliance, including Neolitsea acuminatissima - Cyclobalanopsis morii, Vaccinium randaiense - Castanopsis cuspidata and Pasania kawakamii - Cyclobalanopsis stenophylloides associations, (II) Beilschmiedia erythrophloia alliance, including Camellia salicifolia - Beilschmiedia erythrophloia, Engelhardtia roxburghiana - Cyclobalanopsis longinux and Helicia formosana - Castanopsis kusanoi associations, and (III) Machilus kusanoi alliance, including Castanopsis formosana - Machilus philippinense, Machilus zuihoensis - Schefflera octophylla and Ficus irisana - Machilus kusanoi associations.

    Abstract: In 1998, Hayataella michellioides Masam. was transferred to the genus Ophiorrhiza by X. R. Lo and named Ophiorrhiza michellioides (Masam.) X. R. Lo. The following year, Lo treated Ophiorrhiza exigua (Li) H. S. Lo as a synonym of O. michellioides. However, ...

    Abstract In 1998, Hayataella michellioides Masam. was transferred to the genus Ophiorrhiza by X. R. Lo and named Ophiorrhiza michellioides (Masam.) X. R. Lo. The following year, Lo treated Ophiorrhiza exigua (Li) H. S. Lo as a synonym of O. michellioides. However, a detailed comparison between O. exigua and O. michellioides revealed that the former belongs to a separate species. The diagnostic characters to separate them include pubescence of stems, surfaces of leaves and flower morphology. The present study has ascertained the taxonomic status of O. michellioides. In addition, a detailed description, geographic distribution, habitat, photographs and line-drawings are given.
