Notes

2This species resembles both F. obpyramidata (Malay Peninsula) and F. hahliana (New Guinea). It can readily be distinguished from the former by the relatively narrow leaves and (sub)persistent stipules and from the latter by the (sub)entire lamina and the hairy and conspicuously lenticellate fig receptacles. 1One of the labels indicates that the plant is a rheophytic shrub. On all specimens traces of silt are present.
