摘要
A new species, Smilax petiolatumidus Moore, Narkkong, Moore et Lutat sp. nov. is proposed based upon a specimen from Loei province, Thailand, having leaves with a distinctively swollen petiole and one to many sub-tending thorns. Our recognition of this sterile individual as a new species is confirmed by its unique epicuticular leaf architecture. This is the first instance in which leaf epidermal architecture has been applied as a taxonomic tool in the absence of reproductive structures to diagnose a new Thai species of Smilacaceae.
