Abstract

A neotype is proposed for Calymperes couguiense Besch. and the features are outlined by which the species may be distinguished from C. subintegrum Broth. and C. porrectum Mitt. Owing to its confusion with these latter species, most reports of its occurrence in Malesia are erroneous. The distribution of C. couguiense includes NE Australia and the islands of the Pacific as far east as the Tuamotu Archipelago.
