Notes.

Specimens of this species were mistakenly recognised as a new species (" A. sp. 5 (Kao Yai)") by Thongpairoj (2008) and misidentified as " A. aereus " by Insura (2009). Artabotrys punctulatus can be distinguished from A. aeneus (which is only known from Vietnam) by its chartaceous leaves, sparsely pubescent (vs. densely villose) flowering pedicels, sepals and petals, smaller sepals and its elongated, raised rim between the claw and blade on the adaxial surface of the inner petals.
