Abstract

Schottarum P.C. Boyce & S.Y. Wong and Bakoa P.C. Boyce & S.Y. Wong are described as new genera from Sarawak, each with one species: Schottarum sarikeense (Bogner & M. Hotta) P.C. Boyce & S.Y. Wong based upon Schismatoglottis sarikeensis (Bogner & M. Hotta) Bogner & A. Hay and Bakoa lucens (Bogner) P.C. Boyce & S.Y. Wong based upon Piptospatha lucens (Bogner) Bogner & A. Hay. Both species were formerly placed in now-defunct Hottarum (= Piptospatha). A key to the genera and principle subgeneric divisions of Tribe Schismatoglottideae in Borneo is presented. Both species are illustrated.
