Species Information
Classification and Distribution
Begonia daunhitam is a low herb, terrestrial, perennial begonia species found in Indonesia, specifically in Borneo.
Habitat
This species thrives in wet areas on slopes near rivers under dense canopies of dipterocarp forest at elevations of 200–300 meters above sea level.
Distribution
Begonia daunhitam is endemic to Borneo and has been recorded only in Sri Wangi village, Boyan Tanjung district, Kapuas Hulu regency, West Kalimantan province, Indonesia.
Characteristics
The leaves of Begonia daunhitam are dark olive to solid black at maturity, with a bubble-like appearance on the adaxial (upper) surface. The leaves are asymmetric and strongly bullate, giving them a cordate appearance.
Flower Details
The species produces pink to purplish or brownish flowers. Staminate (male) flowers have 20–30 yellow stamens, while pistillate (female) flowers have 3 styles and broadly Y-shaped stigmas.
Etymology
The specific epithet "daunhitam" originates from Bahasa Indonesia, where "daun" means leaves and "hitam" means black, referring to the black leaves of this species.
Comparison to Similar Species
Begonia daunhitam is similar to B. darthvaderiana, but it can be distinguished by its dichasial cyme inflorescence, strongly bullate adaxial leaf surface, absence of a narrow silvery band along leaf margins, and a greater number of stamens.
