Abstract

Two noteworthy species belongs to the Euphorbiaceae namely Caperonia palustris and Croton bonplandianus have been recently collected from Java Island West Malesia. The discovery of C. palustris is a new record for Malesia region while C. bonplandianus is considered as a newly recorded alien species to the Flora of Java. Caperonia palustris is characterized by the glandular and non-glandular hairs on its stem and petiole triangular to lanceolate or subulate stipules and leaves in ovateoblong or elliptic-oblong to lanceolate shape. Croton bonplandianus differs from the previously reported species in Java C. hirtus by its non-irritating hairs on the stem sessile basal leaf glands leaf margin with simple serration and ellipsoid fruit. Descriptions and a brief discussion are given.
