          Abstract

          Two new species of the mycoheterotrophic genus Thismia Griff. ( Thismiaceae ), Thismia domei Siti-Munirah and T. terengganuensis Siti-Munirah from Peninsular Malaysia, are described and illustrated. Thismia domei , characterized by its perianth lobes that are upright and curve inward, but are imperfectly connate, falls within section Odoardoa . Thismia terengganuensis is characterized by its mitre with three appendages on its apex, so falls within section Geomitra . Both new species are unique and totally different from other described species, T. domei by the trichomes on its outer perianth tube surface and T. terengganuensis by its mitre with slender appendages. Thismia javanica J.J.Sm, also from Terengganu, is a new record for Peninsular Malaysia.

          Thismia nigricoronata, a new species of Burmanniaceae (Thismieae, Dioscoreales) from Vang Vieng, Vientiane Province, Laos, and a key to subgeneric classification

          Thismia nigricoronata is described as a new species in family Burmanniaceae. Both morphological and phylogenetic analyses indicate that this new Lao endemic is allied to T. taiwanensis in section Glaziocharis, and it can be differentiated on the basis of its longer vestigial stem leaves, reflexed free outer perianth lobes and ornamented, vibrantly coloured outer surface of the perianth tube. The infrageneric taxonomy of Thismia is reviewed, the genera Geomitra and Scaphiophora are officially reduced to sectional status in Thismia, and all species are enumerated in systematic order. A key to all currently accepted subgenera, sections and subsections is presented to facilitate further examination of their phylogenetic integrity in light of apparent conflict between the traditional morphology-based system and the emerging DNA-based classification.
