    Abstract

    A taxonomic review of the genus Racopilum in Asia, Australasia and Oceania recognizes eleven species and two varieties. The phyllotaxis is explained. Fourteen species and fourteen varieties and formae are reduced to synonyms of other Racopilum taxa. Thirteen lectotypes are designated. One new species (R. tubiformis Zanten) from Sumatra is described. A key for identification is provided. For each species synonymy, typification, description, distribution, habitat and notes are given.
