Ericaceae of Indonesia: expedition to the mountainous regions of Aceh

The Ericaceae of Sumatra is among the most neglected by botanists of any Malesian islands. Currently, 69 species are known from this island. However, more new taxa are awaiting description, and many potential habitats for Ericaceae are unexplored. The total number is perhaps between 80 and 85 species.
