| Fagraea ridleyi |
| This
rare epiphytic shrub in Siloso, previously
thought to be extinct, is likely the last known living specimen in
Singapore. See leaf and nervation, stem
and another uncommon sister species in Singapore -- Fagraea
auriculata. F. ridleyi is just one of many plants named
in honour of Mr. H. N. Ridley, the supremo father of tropical botany. |
