SUMMARY
SOETJIPTO MOELJONO. A Revision of the Genus Popowia Endl. (Annonaceae) in Malesia; advised by: Edi Guhardja, J. P. Mogea, Soedarsono
Riswan and P.J.A. Kessler.
This dissertation presents a taxonomic revision ofPopowia Endl. in Malesia. It is based on an examination of 574 collection numbers which are preserved in the Herbarium Bogoriense, Bogor ( BO); Herbarium Manokwariense, The State University of Papua, Manokwari (MAN); and National Herbarium of the Netherlands, Leiden Branch( L). The Leiden collections were loaned to Bogor for this project.
Method used follows the normal practice in herbarium taxonomy. Morphological characters, which have been used as the diagnostic taxonomic features, are used in evaluating the species of Popowia Endl. Vegetative morphology: leaf shape, leaf base, leaf texture, number of main nerves, and the petiole length; and reproductive morphology: pedicel length, sepal shape, petal shape, and fruit size, are the main characters used for determinity the species in the genus.
species: P. pisocarpa (Blume) Endl. and P. lanceolata Merrill. In the Moluccas three species: P. pisocarpa (Blume) Endl., and P. schefferiana Diels Thirteen species are known from New Guinea: Popowia pisocarpa (Blume) Endl., P. beccarii Scheffer, P. clavata Diels, P. cyanocarpa Lauterb. and K. Schum., P. novoguineensis Miquel, P. phacypetala Diels, P. papuana Scheffer, P. parvifolia Scheffer, P. platyphylla Diels, P. schefferiana Diels, P. polytrica Diels, P. hentyii Moeljono,P. nooteboomii Moeljono.
The vegetative and generative characters upon which the taxonomic revision are based will be discussed. First, this includes detail studies on the leaf surface using the microscope and detail measurement of the leaf morphology and anatomy. The flowers were selected and studied in detail. Botanical descriptions are included of all species with notes on their habitats and a list of their vernacular names. An identification key is provided. All examined collections are listed in Appendix 1. The collections are from Malesia.

I. INTRODUCTION
The Annonaceae is a pantropical family with about 130 genera and 2.300 species. The family is known in Indonesia under the name ”Sirsak-sirsakan”. It is confined mostly to humid tropical lowland forests. They are abundant common in Asia, Africa, Central and South America and few in Australia. Two related genera Asimina and Deeringothamnus occur in warm temperate North-East America. In Malesia Annonaceae is abundant in the low altitude and becomes scarce at about above 600 meters elevation (Sinclair 1955 and Kessler 1993). 47 out of 130 genera of the family occur in Malesia, including genusPopowia.
The genus Popowia was firstly published by Stephano Endlicher in the Genera Plantarum secundum Ordines Naturales page 831 in the year of 1839. In 1842 in Walp. Repert. 1, page 74, he published Popowia pisocarpa to revise Guatteria pisocarpa Blume in 1825, which is written in Bijdragen tot de Flora van Nederlandsch Indie page 21 and Sprengel also published this name in Systema Vegetabilium Vol. IV Part II, page 214.28 in 1827 as a basionym.
New Guinea. In 1929, he describedPopowia polytricha (New Guinea). Finally, in 1931 he describedP. odoardi (Borneo). In 1913, Ridley published five species of Popowia namely,P hirta, P. novoguineensis P. pisocarpa, P. ramosissima andP. tomentosa. In 1922, he published ten species of Popowia namely, P. foetida, P. fusca, P. nervifolia, P. nervosa, P. pauciflora, P. perakensis, P. pumila, P. ramosissima, P. tomentosa and P. velutina. Later in 1926, he published againP. rufescent. Finally, in 1955, Sinclair published six species and one variety of Popowia from Malay Peninsula namely, P. fusca, P. pauciflora,P. perakensis, P. pisocarpa, P. tomentosa, P. tomentosa var. crinita and P. velutina, and removed Popowia affinis,P. ramosissima, P. rufescens and P. rufula to P.pisocarpa andP. foetida to Neouvaria foetida, Popowia nervifolia to Trivalvaria macrophylla, Popowia nervosa toTrivalvaria nervosa, Popowia pumila toTrivalvaria pumila.
II. LITERATURES REVIEW
2.1. Malesia Region
Malesia is the floristic region that comprises the following political entities: Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, East Timor (previously Portuguese Timor), the Philippines, Brunei Darussalam, and Papua New Guinea. The concept and demarcation of this floristic region was firstly proposed by Van Steenis in the late 1940’s, under the name “Malaysia” (Van Steenis 1950). To avoid confusion with the State of Malaysia (granted independence from the British in 1953), the name Malesia was introduced to replace the previous name (Whitmore 1975).
In the original demarcation Van Steenis (1950) did not include the islands surrounding the mainland of New Guinea, namely the Bismarck, Solomon, and New Hebrides Archipelagos (Figure 1). He explained that these islands were excluded mainly because knowledge of their floras was limited. However, he suggested that the floras on these islands were mainly derived from Malesia. Furthermore, he noted that the demarcation of Malesia without these groups of islands was artificial, thus the exclusion of the islands was basically for practical reasons only (Van Steenis 1950). Van Steenis concluded that the Indo-Asiatic flora ends rather abruptly in the mainland of New Guinea. The studies of Van Balgooy (1971) support the suggestion by Van Steenis that the floras of the Bismarck, Solomon and New Hebrides Archipelagos indeed share many similarities with the Malesian flora rather than with the Australian flora.
consisting of the Philippines, Celebes, Moluccas and the Lesser Sunda Islands (Nusa Tenggara). Later Dickerson (1925; 1928) proposed the name Wallacea for this “region in between”.
Combining Wallace’s line, at least between Borneo and Celebes, with his own studies on plant generic distribution in the Malay Archipelago, Van Steenis (1950; 1954; 1979; Van Balgooy 1987) proposed three areas, known to him as “demarcation knots”, which are not crossed by many genera in either direction. He thus divided Malesia into three divisions, West Malesia (including the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Borneo, and the Philippines), East Malesia (including Celebes, Moluccas, and New Guinea with its nearby islands), and South Malesia (including Java and the Lesser Sunda Islands).

2.2. History of Classification ofPopowia Endl.
The Annonaceae is a pantropical family with about 128 genera and ca. 2.300 spp. (Sinclair 1955, Keng 1978 and Kessler 1993). All members of the Annonaceae are trees, shrubs, or climbers. Among the Asiatic and African members of the family, the climbing habit is frequent. According to Sinclair (1955) the Annonaceae are readly distinguished from other families by twigs alone, which often have lozenge-shaped striations resembling a sort
B
of trellis work and the fruit is of considerable importance in separation of genera but not species.
Although the Annonaceae as a family are well characterized, subdivision has always been problematic. This is reflected by the different proposals that have been made in recent systematic treatments ( Sinclair 1955; Fries 1959; Hutchinson 1964; Walker 1971; and Koek-Noorman et al. 1990). These classifications are far from being comparable with each other, although all contain valuable elements.
All systematists, maintain a fundamental subdivision of the family into Annonoideae and Monodoroideae. This is based on the peculiar gynoecium structure of Monodora and Isolana (paracarpous or monocarps with laminal placentation. The classification of the group of Annonaceae according to Sinclair 1955 is divided into 2 subfamily and 6 tribes as follow:
KEY TO THE GROUPS OF ANNONACEAE
A. Carpels free or if united forming a many-celled syncarp; stigma erect.
Subfamily (1) ANNONOIDEAE
B. Carpel free or if slightly so, then always quite free in fruit.
C. Sepal imbricate or valvate. Petals 2-seriate, one or both series Imbricate in bud. Stamens many. Closely packed, their anther cells concealed at the top by the connective. Indumentum of leaves often stellate or lepidote, seeds many to few.
Tribe (1) UVARIAE
C. Sepals valvate. Petals al valvate either in two distinct series or rarely in one series, usually 6, rarely 4, more rarely 3, in the latter case either the inner or the outer series missing.
concave at the base only, the inner flat, terete, or filiform, or concave or not at the base. Stamens many, connectives flat-topped or convex, rarely apiculate, the anther cells concealed by the connective.
Tribe (2) UNONEAE
D. Petals sub-equal or more often the inner shorter, the outer orbicular,ovate, ooblong but usually lanceolate, spreading, often triquetrous, the inner nearly always triquetrous, not often spreading but remaining erect and touching each other, smaller, than the outer. Stamen concealed by the connectives.
Tribe (3) XYLOPIEAE
D. Petals, one or both sets but usually the inner saccate or at least broad at base, the outer small and like the sepals, free, the inner larger, free or less often tending to adhere to some extent by the margin (both sets sub- equal in Alphonsea). Stamens few, loosely imbricate, anther cells not concealed by the flat-topped, rounded or pointed connectives.
Tribe (4) MILIUSEAE
D. Petals, inner larger or smaller than the outer, less often sub-equal, usually dissimiliar, concave, connivent, arching over the sexual organs and forming a dome, if free their edges at first united for a short time, clawed, the claw often long and narrow or vestigial or absent. Stamens many, flat-topped or convex, the connectives hiding the anther cells.
Tribe (5) MITREPHOREAE
B. Carpels united into a fleshy mass, especially in fruit.
A. Carpels united into a 1- celled ovary with parietal placentas, stigmas radiating ( No examples in Malesia )
Subfamily (2) MONODOROIDEAE
TRIBE MITREPHOREAE
According to Sinclair (1955) that tribe Mitrephoreae came from the Unoneae. They are characterised by the development of a mitriform corolla. Fig.3. shows the development and differentiation of such a corolla. Pseudu-varia seem to be the most advance where the inner petals are well differentiated into claw and blade and the blades remain united to form a dome. Sepals valvate. Petals valvate, inner larger or small than outer, less often sub-equal, usually dissimilar, concave, connivent, arching over the sexual organs and forming a dome, if free, their edges at first united for a short time, clawed, the claw often long and narrow or vestigial or absent. Stamens 20 - 30, flat-topped or convex (uvaroid).
KEY TO THE GENERA OF THE TRIBE MITREPHOREAE
a. Flowers axillary
b. Flowers unisexual ... Pseuduvaria
b. Flowers hermaphrodite
c. Petals sub-equal; stellate hairs present on leaves and young twigs
... Neo-Uvaria
c. Inner petals much small than outer; no stellate hairs ... Goniothalamus
a. Flower extra-axillary
d. Inner petals shorter than outer or equal to them
e. Climbers. Inner petals not clawed ... Oxymitra
e. Trees. Inner petals with long narrow claws 1 mm broad or less ... Mitrephora
Fig. 3. Tribe Mitrephoreae. Tree based on development and differentiation of corolla (Sinclair 1955).
Outer petals slightly clawed or not. Inner larger, with very narrow claws, the blades united forming dome
Outer petals slightly or not clawed, spreading. Inner slightly shorter, with very narrow claws, erect, edges adhering, later free.
Outer petals slightly or not spreading. Inner smaller, clawed, erect, connivent, edges adhering
Outer petals spreading. Inner much smaller, not clowed, connivent, erect, their edges adhering.
Outer petals spreading. Inner longer with incurved apices and rudimentary claw, some-what connivent and erect, united by edges at first, later free.
The genus Popowia name can be found in Genera Plantarum secundum Ordines Naturales page 831 in 1839 by Stephano Endlicher, which he named asPopowia pisocarpa. It was based on the nameGuatteria pisocarpa Blume inBijdragen tot de Flora van Nederlandsch Indie page 21 in 1825 and in Systema Vegetabilium Vol. IV Part II, page 214.28 is basonym. Guatteria pisocarpa transferred to Popowia pisocarpa in Walp. Repert. 1 (1842) 74 by Endlicher and Bocagea pisocarpa Bl. in Flora of Java. Anon (1830) p.90, Tab. 45 is synonim ofP. pisocarpa. The reason for these changes will be found in the systematic section i.e. position of inflorescence or single flower leaf-opposite, aestivation of corolla valvate, inner petals longer than outer ones, shape of petals clawed, coherent of petals with reproductive organs, numbers of carpels 2- 20, numbers of ovule per capel 2 – 5 and placentation of ovule lateral.
2.3. History of Research on Popowia Endl. in Malesia
The first species currently placed in the genus Popowia wasPopowia pisocarpa which described by Ejusd asGuatteria pisocarpa from G. Parang, Tjiandjoer (Cianjur), West Java. Guatteria pisocarpa transferred to Popowia pisocarpa in Walp. Repert. 1 (1842) 74 by Endlicher; Bocagea pisocarpa Bl. is synonim of P. pisocarpa. Other species of Popowia were published by Hooker and Thomson (1855) published Popowia ramosissima (Malay Peninsula) in Flora Indica Vol.1 page 105. Miquel (1865) published
macrophylla, P. nervosa to Trivalvaria nervosa, P. pumila to Trivalvaria pumila in The Gardens Bulletin Singapore Vol. XIV, Part 2, page 149 – 516.

The general morphological characters which have been used as diagnostic taxonomic feature were found usefull in evaluating the relationship of species ofPopowiaEndl. The vegetative morphology i.e leaf shape, leaf base, leaf texture, number of main nerves, and petiole length; the floristic morphology i.e pedicel length, sepal shape, petal shape, and fruits size; are the main characters used for determinating the species in the genus Popowia Endl. (Blume, 1830; Diels, 1912; Sinclair, 1955 and Kessler, 1993).

Within the cladogram three groups of branching are shown. The
first branch is Mitrephora maingayi (outgroup) separated from
Popowia Endl. By a plesiomorph character of the outgroup (leaves texture is coriaceous, pedicel length is 2 cm and inner surface of
petal is pubescent. The second branch is separated by apex of
leaves (character 8), Number of nerves (character 14), inner petal
length (character 27) and ripe carpel length (character 30). The other
Popowia is separated by petioles length (character 2), leaves base shape (character 10), upper leaves surface (character 11), sepal
length (character 20), petal shape (character 23) and outer petal
length (character 26). The last group finished in three sister group,
they are P. pisocarpa and P. pauciflora, they are joined by leaves base shape (character 10), reticulation (character 15) and number of
seed (character 34); P. fusca andP. velutina, are joined by apex of leaves (character 8), and leaves base shape (character 10); the sister
group is closely relate with P. tomentosa and P. tomentosa var.
crinita is separated by apex of leaves (character 8), and leaves base shape (character 10).
4.5. Distribution and Ecology ofPopowia
The Annonaceae is a pantropical family with about 130 genera and 2.300 species. It is confined mostly to humid tropical lowland forests. They are abundant common in Asia, Africa, Central and South America and few in Australia. The genusPopowia formerly recorded from Asia and Africa, about 90 species and majority from Tropical Africa. The remainder, Madagascar, S.India, Burma, Siam, Malaya, Indo-China, Malay island to Australia.
borders, road sides, waste land, and the genus has a wide altitudinal range, from sea level up to the montain area at 0–600 meters altitude.
In the Malesian region, only a few species have a wide distribution, namelyPopowia pisocarpa (Blume) Endl. Most species have rather limited range of distribution such asP. fusca King ( Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo), P. hirta Miquel (Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo), P. tomentosa Maingay ex Hook.f. (Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo),P. tomentosa var. crinita J. Sinclair (Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo), P. velutina King (Malay Peninsula, and Sumatra), P. bancana Scheffer (Sumatra, and Borneo); P. schefferiana Diels (Moluccas and Papuasia). Some species are only known from a single locality of the type collection (P. pauciflora Maingay ex Hook.f. and P. perakensis King from Malay Peninsula; P. odoardi Diels from Borneo; P. cuspidata Miquel and P. cordata Moeljono from Java; P. lanceolata Merrill from Philippines, P. beccariiScheffer, P. clavataDiels, P. cyanocarpa Lauterb. and K. Schum., P. novoguineensisMiquel, P. papuana Scheffer, P. pachypetala Diels, P. polytrica Diels,P. platyphylla Diels, P. parvifoliaScheffer,P. nooteboomii Moeljono, andP. hentyii Moeljono from Papuasia. (Table 3).
pisocarpa (Blume) Endl.). In Moluccas, two species were recorded (P. pisocarpa (Blume) Endl.,and P. schefferiana Diels). In Papuasia, thirteen species were recorded (P. pisocarpa (Blume) Endl., P. beccarii Scheffer, P. clavata Diels, P. cyanocarpa Lauterb. and K. Schum., P. novoguineensis Miquel, P. papuana Scheffer, P. schefferiana Diels, P. pachypetala Diels, P. polytrica Diels, P. platyphylla Diels, P. parvifolia Scheffer, P. nooteboomii Moeljono, and P. hentyii Moeljono (Fig. 9). Papuasia is the richest in species number of Popowia in the Malesian region, with 13 species recorded. This area has the highest number of endemic species, with eleven species (P. beccarii Scheffer, P. clavata Diels, P. cyanocarpa Lauterb. and K. Schum., P. novoguineensisMiquel, P. papuanaScheffer, P. pachypetala Diels, P. polytrica Diels, P. platyphylla Diels, P. parvifolia Scheffer, P. nooteboomii Moeljono, and P. hentyii Moeljono) recognized being endemic (Fig. 9). In contrast, Philippines, Celebes, and Moluccas are the poorest in species number recorded from these areas, but no single species in Lesser Sunda Island. The distribution area of Popowia in Malesia can be grouped into three subregions: Western Malesia, Central Malesia and Eastern Malesia.
a. Western Malesia: Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Borneo, and Java. There are 12 species occuring in this subregion, two species are considered to be endemic in Malay Peninsula, two species in Java and one species in Borneo.
b. Central Malesia: Philippine, Celebes, Moluccas and the Lesser Sunda Islands. In this area occur 3 species, one of which endemic in the Philippine.
c. East Malesia: New Guinea. There are 13 species, eleven of which are considered to be endemic in this area.

Shrub or tree 5 - 15 m high. Young twigs dark rusty - tomentose, the older glabrous, striate and with numerous leaf scars. Petiole 3 - 6 mm long, tomentose. Leaves 7 - 23 by 3 - 9 cm, oval - oblong, obtuse or sub - acute, the base rounded and slightly unequal-sided, slightly coriaceous, thicker than in P. pisocarpa (Blume) Endl., minutely granular on the both surface, the upper surface puberulous, the midrib rusty-pubescent, the lower surface pubescent with thickened pubescent edges; nerves 8 - 10 pairs, prominent, curving, ascending rather steeply; reticulations fine but usually visible on the lower surface, scalariform. Flower extra-axillary in fascicle on very short bracteate tubercles. Pedicels about 5 mm long with a sub-median minute bract, rusty - tomentose. Sepals 2 mm long, ovate, obtuse, tomentose outside, glabrous inside, persistent. Petals the outer 2.5 - 3 mm long, cream colored, tomentose, broadly ovate; the inner 3.5 - 4 mm long with incurved apices; both sets united at base in one piece. Stamens 1 mm. long, the connectives flat-topped, red. Ovaries 6, oblong, slightly falcate, 1 mm. long, thinly pubescent; style very short, stigma wedge-shape, grooved on the top and the inner side. Ripe carpels 1 - 4, globose - falcate, asymmetrical, pubescent, 1.5 - 2 cm long, 1 cm in diam.; stalks 3 - 8 mm long. Seed solitary, tuberculate, ridged.
DISTRIBUTION : Malay Peninsula : Perak, Pahang, and Singapore; Borneo : Baram, Samba, and Serawai. Sumatera : Tanjung Pinang.
NOTES : The leaves are thicker and less shining than inP. pisocarpa (Bl) Endl. and have thickened pubescent edges; also the reticulations are visible below.
The degree of pubescence varies a good deal. See notes under P.velutinaKing, a species which may not be distincted from this one.
