possibly more widespread and continuous but overlooked due to the small

- Korthalsella c.f. papuana
Danser, Blumea iii. 53 (1938). LUZON. The photos by LC suggest K.
papuana, however, this species typically has obovate internodes that
are tapering at the base. This mistletoe has broad internode
bases, so it may be a new species. Photos
