Susana V., Ibañez, Jayson C., Barcelona, Julie F. (2025): Vaccinium kilangensis (Ericaceae), a new species from the border of Ilocos Norte and Apayao Provinces, northern Philippines. Phytotaxa 721 (1): 75-80, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.721.1.4, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.721.1.4AbstractA new species of small-leaved Vaccinium is described from Kilang Pass in northern Luzon (Philippines), bringing the total number of Philippine Vaccinium species to 45. Vaccinium kilangensis differs from the other species in the genus in having elliptic (to narrowly obovate) leaves with an entire leaf margin and obtuse apex, one- to two-flowered inflorescences with persistent foliaceous bracts, broadly conical-urceolate corollas, and spurred anthers.
