Notes

Ridsdale (1989: 200) placed Neonauclea peduncularis (Wall. ex G.Don) Merr., whose basionym Nauclea peduncularis Wall. ex G.Don had been first described from Peninsular Malaysia (Penang), under N. calycina, but it appears under Neonauclea excelsa (Blume) Merr. in Wong et al. (2019: 210).

Misapplied names

• Nauclea glabra auct. non Roxb., Flora Indica 2: 121 (1824) [≡ Neonauclea glabra (Roxb.) Bakh.f. & Ridsdale]: Blanco, Fl. Filip., ed. 2: 101 (1845), ed. 3, 1: 185 (1877)
  • Note: see Merrill (1918: 361; 1923: 512).

Distribution

Native distribution areas:
Continental: Asia-Tropical Regional: Indian Subcontinent East Himalaya (Arunachal Pradesh) Regional: Indo-China Andaman Is., Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam Regional: Malesia Borneo (Kalimantan, Sabah, Sarawak), Lesser Sunda Is., Philippines, Sulawesi, Sumatera References: Brummitt, R.K. 2001.

Notes

IUCN Red List (assessed on 12 June 2018) also includes Assam (Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura) sensu Brummitt (2001), Java and Peninsular Malaysia in native range. According to Seah & Wong (14 December 2018), specimens from Java, Peninsular Malaysia and some parts of Borneo previously determined as this species belong to Neonauclea excelsa (Blume) Merr.
