Rhododendron renschianum Sleumer

Description

2. Rhododendron renschianum Sleumer

A specimen in BO from Bali (Nengah Irawan 499) was identified as Rhododendron renschianum. Argent (2015) noted there were “unconfirmed reports of this species from Bali ”, but it is not clear if he had seen this specimen. Our research has identified this sterile specimen as Rhododendron zollingeri based on leaf and scale shape and the fact that no report of R. renschianum has been made in the past 10 years from flora explorations conducted across Bali.
