Leaves 70 - 110 cm long, spreading then arching, bases imbricate with hyaline margins (young leaves), turning brown and erose-marcescent with age; pseudopetiole 13 - 70 cm long, 0.8 - 2.1 cm wide, accounting for 1 / 3 - 1 / 2 of entire leaf length, roundly channelled with sharp margins, basally greyish-white floccose; leaf blade 40 - 70 x 8 - 20 cm, narrowly elliptic to elliptic, base attenuate, tip long narrowly attenuate with apicule to 5 mm, leathery, flat, adaxially mid to dark green (in close-up with darker green blotches and transverse veins resulting in checker-like variegation), greyish-white floccose when young, falling off in older leaves, abaxially light green, prominently floccose in young leaves, falling off with age; midrib weakly impressed, pale green adaxially, round-raised, lighter green, almost glabrous and shiny abaxially. Male inflorescences not seen, female inflorescence not seen. Infructescence deflexed, procumbent to suberect, comprising of up to 5 partial, whorled, alternate-secund, spiciform infructescences ascending at 70 ° - 80 ° angle, plus a terminal spike; peduncle and rachis together up to 35 cm tall, pale green when fresh, densely pale brown-grey flocculose, visible portion of peduncle up to 25 cm long; sterile bract one per peduncle, foliaceous, persistent, narrowly ovate to narrowly elliptic with a basal claw, up to ca 14 - 24 (incl. 2 cm long claw) x ca 3 - 5 cm; bracts subtending lower partial infructescences similar to sterile bracts, diminishing in size and becoming narrowly triangular distally along the infructescence, the bract supporting the most basal partial infructescence ca 7 x 1 cm (incl. ca 1.5 cm long claw), fully reduced in uppermost partial infructescences; all bracts densely pale brown-grey flocculose; partial infructescences each comprising up to 4 branches at basal levels (gradually less with up to single branch towards the apex of the infructescence), branches arising simultaneously from the axil of the subtending bract, ca 2 - 3 mm in diam., usually unbranched, up to 5 cm long, with up to ca 10 fruits each. Female flowers scattered, solitary, sessile, all with an associated minute bracteole; perianth composed of 6 tepals in two whorls tightly clasping ovary / fruit in fresh material, all tepals with prominent bulbous thickening at base (more prominent in outer whorl), light green, margin ca 0.5 - 1 mm wide, hyaline translucent white (turning brown with age); outer tepals broadly ovate, ca 0.5 - 1 mm long, ca 1.5 - 2 mm broad, connate at base (only 0.2 mm), sparsely hairy; inner tepals almost orbicular, ca 3 - 3.5 mm long, 2.5 - 3 mm broad, basally imbricate but free, sparsely hairy; staminodes 6, in two whorls, pale green, triangular to narrowly triangular, outer staminodes ca 0.5 - 1 mm long, ca 0.3 mm broad at base, inner staminodes longer, ca 1.5 - 2 mm long, ca 0.5 mm at base, each basally sheathed with orbicular to broadly ovate, apically pointed to shallowly bilobed scale, ca 1 - 1.4 mm long, and 0.8 - 1.2 mm broad, apex and margins semitranslucent (when fresh) to light brown (when dry), gradually darker brown towards the base. Stigma 3 - lobed, ca 2.5 - 3 mm in diam., each lobe ca 1.2 - 1.5 mm long (fruiting material), ovate to elliptic with slightly pointed apex curved upwards, lobes connate basally with somewhat raised centre, dark brown at fruiting stage, positioned terminally in ripe fruit. Ripe fruit globose, 8 - 12 mm in diam., dull purplish red, finally turning black; pulp 0.5 - 2 mm thick, pinkish-white to pinkish-yellow, fairly hard. Seed one per fruit, ca 5 - 6 x 4 mm, dark brown, 3 / 4 globose to ellipsoid, deeply excavated, ostiole wedge-shaped accounting for ca 1 / 4 of the seeds, without any discernible appendage on the rim, cavity filled with placental tissue.	en	Hrones, Michal, Leong-Skornickova, Jana, Niissalo, Matti A., Dancak, Martin (2021): Hanguana deflexa (Hanguanaceae), a new forest species from Sarawak, Borneo.

0D2925745EF7582B94D8B963FC8264D2.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from Latin adjective deflexus (i. e. bend, deflexed) and referring to the position of infructescence, a rare character in hitherto described Hanguana species.	en	Hrones, Michal, Leong-Skornickova, Jana, Niissalo, Matti A., Dancak, Martin (2021): Hanguana deflexa (Hanguanaceae), a new forest species from Sarawak, Borneo.
