摘要

Stauntonia DC. is a genus of woody climbers that belongs to the family Lardizabalaceae. A prominent and peculiar woody climber was collected and identified as Stauntonia grandiflora (Réaub.) Christenh. On scrutiny of literature and herbarium consultation, the authors came across that it is collected and reported here for the first time for Indian flora from Neora Valley National Park, Darjeeling-Sikkim Himalayas. The name also warrants typification for the correct application of the name. Hence, the name is lectotypified here. A brief description, phenology, distribution, and a photo plate have been provided for its easy identification in the field.
