Pittosporum (Pittosporaceae, Apiales), an attractive genus of horticulturally important trees and shrubs, is revised for Malesia (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei Darussalam, the Philippines, Timor-Leste) and Papuasia (Papua Barat (Indonesia), Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands). In this report, 52 species are recognised, including many species reinstated from synonymy. Three taxa are raised to species rank (P. owenstanleyense, P. patelliplacenta and P. purpurascens), one is a new combination in Pittosporum (P. impressum), and four new species are described: P. sulawesiense, P. isolatum, P. schoddei and P. sogeriense.

Nine new species in Australian Nicotiana section Suaveolentes are described, including N. clarksonii M.W.Chase & Christenh., N. erytheia M.W.Chase & Christenh., N. latifolia M.W.Chase & Christenh., N. latzii M.W.Chase, R.W.Jobson & Christenh., N. gibbosa M.W.Chase, D.D.Andrew & J.J.Bruhl, N. olens M.W.Chase & Christenh., N. praecipitis M.W.Chase & K.Durham, N. karara M.W.Chase & Christenh. and N. bungonia M.W.Chase & Taseski. Some have been known from herbarium specimens for a long time, but their distinction from other species concepts was unsuspected until DNA studies showed their divergent nature. Others are known from one or only a few new localities. All are morphologically and genetically distinct from their close relatives. Increased sampling of populations in our molecular studies has led us to the conclusion that the widespread, recently described species N. insecticida is a species complex, comprising as many as six genetically distinct taxa, one of which includes material from the type locality of N. hesperis. Here, we describe a new name, N. erytheia, for all material we previously assigned to N. hesperis that is phylogenetically distinct from that of the type locality. To make the relationships of the new species clearer, we provide a tree produced by analysis of nuclear (RADseq) DNA data.
