Abstract

Specimens of Villarsia cambodiana, the only described tropical Villarsia species, were collected from Vietnam, where the species previously had not been recorded to occur. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular and morphological data resolved V. cambodiana within a strongly supported clade of Nymphoides species. In retrospect, we also find that the morphological characteristics of this taxon are more consistent with those of Nymphoides than of Villarsia. Thus we recommend the transfer of V. cambodiana to Nymphoides and provide the appropriate new taxonomic combination Nymphoides cambodiana (Hance) Tippery.
