Ovary bicarpellate, each carpel bottle-shaped, light green with pink tips, c. 2 by 0.7 mm, glabrous, apex acute. Fruits and seeds not seen.</p><p>Distribution — Thừa Thiên-Huế province in Vietnam.</p><p>Habitat &amp; Ecology — Hoya thuathienhuensis has been observed in secondary evergreen lower montane forest up to 20 m high, in proximity to primary forests. It is a strong climbing liana, rooted in the humus-rich forest floor.</p><p>Conservation status — The only locality where H. thuathienhuensis has been recorded is within the proposed conservation area of the Hue Green Corridor (Averyanov et al. 2006) thus supporting the long term preservation of the species in situ. Nonetheless, H. thuathienhuensis is to be considered Data Deficient (DD) according to IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2011) because it is known from only one collection and thus remains in need of further investigation with respect to future conservation efforts.</p><p>Notes — When H. thuathienhuensis was first observed in the field it was not in flower. From its vegetative structures, a strong terrestrial climber with coriaceous glabrous leaves, we first thought it may not belong to the genus. What made us initially think that H. thuathienhuensis may indeed belong to the genus are its extra-axillary, positively geotropic peduncles, bearing scars of previous flowerings thus diagnostic of the genus (Omlor 1996). After flowering in cultivation it became clear that the taxon belongs to Hoya and bears superficial similarities with co-occurring H. lockii, the only other Hoya species observed in the Hue Green Corridor apart from Hoya carnosa R.Br. so far. It can be easily separated from H. lockii because of the growth habit: H. thuathienhuensis is a strong climbing liana while H. lockii is an epiphytic shrub. Further, the corolla lobes are similarly reflexed and densely hirsute underneath the corona in both species but in H. lockii they are also slightly pubescent elsewhere and ciliate while in H. thuathienhuensis they are glabrous and brilliant; the corona lobes are ovate-round with a short acute inner process depressed among the prominent outer processes (Fig. 1) while in H. lockii the corona lobes are laterally compressed and present a prominent inner process bearing a caudate, erect or slightly converging or diverging appendage with a linear, slightly recurved apex, extending 2 –4 mm above the apex of the outer process.</p><p>The general habit of the plant, a strong terrestrial climbing liana, as said, is rare in Hoya and usually typical of species belonging to Hoya sect. Eriostemma . Species in this section are characterised by mainly terrestrial, non-epiphytic habit, inflorescences on short-lived or deciduous peduncles and large and fleshy corollas with proportionally small coronas (Wanntorp et al. 2011). No species of Hoya sect. Eriostemma are known to occur in Vietnam. Pollinaria in species belonging to sect. Eriostemma consist of club-shaped pollinia lacking pellucid margins, attached to the retinaculum by twisted and winged caudicles (Wanntorp et al. 2011). With its perennial peduncles, smaller flowers and oblong pollinia with a clearly distinguished pellucid margin attached to the retinaculum by short broad caudicles (Fig. 1h), H. thuathienhuensis does not belong to sect. Eriostemma. Its sectional placement is uncertain and on the basis of pollinaria shape, it falls in a phylogenetically unsupported group of species bearing narrow elongate pollinia longer on one side, pellucid margin along the entire dorsal edge, a narrowly rhomboid retinaculum apically pointed and unwinged caudicles (Wanntorp 2007) whose sectional placement will need to be re-evaluated following recent molecular evidence (Wanntorp et al. 2011).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/E9198786FF82FFE62AFA631EFC3441F2	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Kerr selected as type his collection Kerr 4245 but did not indicate in which herbarium it was deposited thus a lectotype has to be selected. We found duplicates in BM, K and P and we hereby select the BM specimen as lectotype since it is a complete specimen with leafy stems and flowers. It is also the only specimen belonging to Kerr’s own herbarium (labelled: Herb. A. F. G. Kerr – Bequeathed 1942) and bears pencilled drawings and measurements of the flowers likely by Kerr’s hand .</p><p>Terrestrial or lithophytic decumbent climber with white latex. Leafy stem slender, cylindrical, green, c. 5 m long, 2 –7 mm diam, glabrous, older stems leafless, rust-brown with brown spots, with swollen nodes, glabrous. Internodes 2–16 cm with inactive adventitious roots below old nodes, located at or up to 2 mm below the nodes.

The prevailing climate in this area is monsoon subequatorial climate with an annual rainfall of 2100 mm and average temperature of 27.4 ° C (Nguyễn et al. 2000). This species has been observed flowering in Vietnam from April to May, in accordance with the flowering period observed in Thailand (March to May) .</p><p>IUCN assessment — In Vietnam, H. graveolens has been observed only on the isolated karst hills of Kiên Giang Province in a total area of less than 3 km 2. This area is being destroyed by human impacts such as fuel wood cutting, small scale agriculture, and exploited for cement production, making the species likely to become threatened in the future. Based on the IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2011), we assign a provisional conservation status of Near Threatened (NT).</p><p>Specimens examined.
