Abstract
Among the rich collections of Pandanaceae in the herb aria of Bogor (BO) and Leiden (L) are numerous specimens of Freycinetia collected in Ternate by V. M. A. Beguin. The greater part of these represent a species which had been given a new name in manuscript by C. A. Backer, but which he evidently never published; this name was based on the name of the island Ternate. Recently (Stone, 1970) I have described this as a new species, closely related to Freycinetia insignis Blume. Not all the specimens collected by Beguin are of this species, however, and the several mentioned here appear to represent a different species, not very close to F. insignis (which pertains to Sect. Blumeella), but rather to F. arborea Gaud . and its nearest relatives, which together form Sect. Freycinetia. In this paper the name Freycinetia leptostachya is proposed for th is interesting new endemic of Ternate.
