Shorea bentongensis was first collected in the Bentongdistrict of Pahang in 1919 and described by Foxworthy m1932. At that time the only flowering specimens availablewere 5875 (cited by Foxworthy under S. globifera)and 15774 upon which Foxworthy based his Shoreapahangensis. This latter specimen bears immature inflores-cences and does indeed, at first glance, appear very differentfrom the type of S. bentongensis. Careful study, however,with the added assistance of a recent excellent floweringcollection of the species, makes it quite clear that Foxw. and S. pahangensis Foxw. are con-specific. The systematic position of this species presentsno difficulties
