Abstract：
Recent fieldwork conducted in Sumatra resulted in unusual collections of the conspicuous ginger genus Geocharis, a genus that harbours a total of six species distributed in Sumatra, the Malay Peninsula, Borneo and the Philippines. After carefully reviewing types and protologues of existing taxa, we conclude that the recent collections represent a new species described here as Geocharisglobosa, which is similar to G.aurantiaca, G.rubra and G.radicalis by the flowers spreading evenly in all directions but differs from these by the less divided labellum and by the unstructured and smooth globose fruits. We provide a detailed description and a photographic plate as well as a preliminary Red List Assessment for the new species. With the new species added to Geocharismacrostemon and G.radicalis, the number of species in Sumatra hereby increases to three. A recircumscription of the genus is provided, taking into account the unusual fruit character of the new species.
摘要：
最近在苏门答腊进行的野外工作导致了显眼的姜属Geocharis的不寻常收藏，一个在苏门答腊共有6个物种的属，马来半岛,婆罗洲和菲律宾。在仔细审查了现有分类群的类型和特征之后，我们得出的结论是，最近的藏品代表了一个新物种，这里描述为Geocharisglobosa，类似于G.aurantiaca，G.rubra和G.radicalis的花朵在各个方向上均匀传播，但与之不同的是，较少分裂的唇瓣和非结构化和光滑的球形果实。我们提供了新物种的详细说明和照相板以及初步的红色清单评估。随着新物种添加到Geocharismacrostemon和radicalis中，因此，苏门答腊的物种数量增加到三个。提供了属的重新界定，考虑到新物种不寻常的果实特征。
