Summary:Nguyen V. D., Croat T. B., Luu H. T., Lee C. Y., Lee J. & de Kok R.: Two new species of Alocasia (Araceae, Colocasieae) from Vietnam. — Willdenowia 43: 293–299. December 2013. — ISSN 0511-9618; © 2013 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem. Stable URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.3372/wi.43.43209 Two new species, Alocasia evrardii and A. vietnamensis (Araceae, Colocasieae), are described and illustrated from Vietnam. Although A. evrardii was described previously by Gagnepain in 1942, also with a historical record from Cambodia, its name was not validly published.
