Abstract

The Goodyera rubicunda complex has broad morphological variation of the floral parts. A revision of the G. rubicunda complex was conducted and three intraspecific groups were recognised; G. rubicunda var. rubicunda which is the widespread variety, G. rubicunda var. triandra, and G. rubicunda var. australis var. nov. Herein, we propose the variety G. rubicunda var. australis from Australia and Papua New Guinea as newly described.
