VNU Journal of Science: Natural Sciences and Technology, Vol. 33, No. 1 (2017) 25-29 A new record Species for Flora of Vietnam - Curcuma singularis Gagnep. (Zingiberaceae) Nguyen Quoc Binh1,*, Hoang Anh Tuan1, Nguyen Van Dat1, Tran Thi Viet Thanh1, Nguyen Phuong Hanh2, Nguyen Manh Cuong3, Nguyen Trung Thanh4 1 Vietnam National Museum of Nature, VAST, Vietnam Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources, VAST, Vietnam 3 Institute of Natural products Chemistry, VAST, Vietnam 4 Faculty of Biology, VNU University of Science, 334 Nguyen Trai, Hanoi, Vietnam 2 Received 16 December 2016 Revised 18 January 2017; Accepted 23 March 2017 Abstract: Curcuma singularis Gagnep., a new record species from the Central Highlands (Gia Lai prov., KBang dist.) is described and illustrated with pictures, and compared to some species in the same group "Ecomata", together with a species with similar morphological characteristics from another group: Curcuma cochinchinensis. The species C. singularis is known by locals as Cay khoe or Sam da, and its rhizomes are used by in habitants to help them improve health. Keywords: Curcuma arida, C. newmanii, C. sahuynhensis, C. stenochila, C. xanthella, C. cochinchinensis, Gia Lai, KBang. 1. Introduction prov.). This is a new record species for flora of Vietnam and updates the total number of Curcuma species in Vietnam to 28. In this article, we provide identifying characteristics, pictures, comparisons with related species, and the usage and potentials of Curcuma singularis. Curcuma L. is a rather large big genus in the Ginger family (Zingiberaceae), containing nearly 100 species with distribution in Southeast Asia, Southern China, India, New Guinea, Northern Australia and some species in tropical Africa, Central America. There were 17 species of Curcuma in the Indochina (Gagnep. 1908) [1], Pham Hoang Ho (1993, 2000) [2, 3] recorded 14 species of Curcuma in Vietnam. During a survey of the genus in the Central Highland of Vietnam, we discovered Curcuma singularis, whose local name is Cây khỏe or Sâm đá in the KBang dist. (Gia Lai 2. Materials and methods Studied specimens includes dry specimens keept in the herbarium at Vietnam National Museum of Nature (VNMN), Institute of Ecology and Biological Resource (HN), Institute of Tropical Biology (VNM), etc., together with new specimens obtained during the survey in KBang Dist. (Gia Lai Prov.). _______  Corresponding author. Tel.: 84-912572579. Email: binhzing@gmail.com 25 26 N.Q.

These are still the standard methods used in botanical classification. 3. Results and discussion Describe a new record species for flora of Vietnam: Curcuma singularis Gagnep. 1907. Bull. Soc. Bot. Fr.54: 407; Gagnep. 1908. Fl. Gen. Indoch. 6: 61-62. Vietnam name: Cây khỏe, Sâm đá Characteristics: Small herb, 30-50 tall. Rhizome horizontal, cylinder, aromatic; fibrous roots; usually root tips swollen form ovate or fusiform, externally brown, internally whitish, buried deeply in the ground. Leaves 3-6, lamina 10-22 × 5-7(-9) cm, ovate or oval, apex acuminate, base rounded or cuneiform, adaxially green, glabrous, abaxially lighter green, pubescent; petiole 5-9 cm long, canaliculate; ligule light brown when young, after turn into light-yellow color, thin, 1-1,5 mm long, tip concave divide into two lobes, ciliated at the top; leaf sheaths light browpurple when young. Inflorescence lateral. Bracts 5-8, green, triangular ovate, 3-4 cm long, 2,5-3 cm wide, apex obtus. Cincinni with 4 flowers. Bracteoles very small. Flowers 7-8,5 cm long, exerted from bracts; tubular calyx, 22,5 cm long, thin, white, pubescent externally, short unilateral incision, splitted into 3-lobes form equal triangles towards apex. Part lower of corolla form tubular, white, 4-4,5 cm long, slightly flared towards the apex, upper divided into three lobes, 2,2-2,6 × 1,5-2 cm, narrow ovate, concave, white, dorsal corolla with mucronate; labellum large obovate, 2,2-2,5 × 1,8-2,1 cm, apex emarginate, incised 1-1,5 mm long, white, with band yellow colour along midrib; lateral staminodes 2, unequally narrow obovate, 2,5-2,8 × 1,2-1,5 long, white, with band yellow along midrib, to 1/2 length staminodes; filament 4-5 mm long, 3-4 mm wide at base, 1,5-2 mm wide toward upper, white; anther 2 lobes, 9-11 mm long, base of each lobe prolonging into flat spur, equal, 3-4 mm long, spur creating blunt angle with anther. Style filiform, 4,5-5,5 cm long, white; stigma funnel-shaped; stylodes two, awl form, slender, 3-4 mm long; ovary 4-5 × 3-4 mm, oval, densely puberulent, white. Fruit globular trilocular capsule, ivory white, 10-11 mm in diameter; seeds ovate, slightly anguled, 3-4 mm long, 2-2,5 mm wide, white; aril hyaline white, splitting into lobes (Fig. 1). Loc. class.: Laos (Pissay). Holotype: Thorel 3194 (P) Habitat: Grows in secondary forests, forest edges, on fields in the mountains, at an altitude of 400-1000m. Phenology: The inflorescences appear just before the leaves, the flowers open from March to May; fruits from June to July, not too much plants with fruit. Distribution: Vietnam (Gia Lai: Sa Thay, KBang). Thailand, Laos, Cambodia. Specimens: Gia Lai (Sa Thay), Nguyễn Quốc Bình, Hoàng Anh Tuấn, SH16 (VNMN); Gia Lai (KBang), Nguyễn Quốc Bình, Hoàng Anh Tuấn, SH30 (VNMN) (Fig. 1). Use value: Locals used rhizomes of Curcuma singularisto improve their health by drinking beverage made from boiling it in water, or infuse its swollen part of the root tip in alcohol. People also use its extracted liquid made by from soaking the plants in alcohol to massage the bruises for relief and improved healing. The chemical composition of the essential oil extracted from the rhizome of Curcuma singularis by steam distillation was analyzed by GC-MS. A total number of 68 constituents were detected, among which 47 chemical compounds (accounting for 62.96% of the oil) have been identified.The main compounds are: camphor (23.63%), isoborneol (2.24%), endo-borneol (3.06%), terpinen-4-ol (3.51%), copaene (2.56%), acoradiene (2.89%) and turmerol (2.65%). Analysis results of chemical also showed that the chemical composition of Curcuma singularis contain eight isolated compounds, with two new N.Q. Binh et al. / VNU Journal of Science: Natural Sciences and Technology, Vol. 33, No. 1 (2017) 25-29 diarylheptanoid compounds (Curcusin A and Curcusin B) showing potent inhibiting effects against sEH. In medicine, sEH inhibitors are one significant subjects in cardiovascular disease research. 27 Curcuma singularis belongs to the group “Ecomata” (Sirirugsa, P. et al., 2007) [5], but differentiate from the other species by the color of its bracts, labellum and staminodes (see Table 1). u Fig. 1.

Binh et al. / VNU Journal of Science: Natural Sciences and Technology, Vol. 33, No. 1 (2017) 25-29 It is similar to C. cochinchinensis (group “Cochinchinensis”) but there are some characteristic differences (see Table 2): Table 2.

Conclusion Curcuma singularis Gagnep. from Highland is new record species for flora of Vietnam, it is different to closest species about colour, dimension of bract, labellum, staminodes, corolla tube. The main compounds are: camphor (23.63%), isoborneol (2.24%), endo-borneol (3.06%), terpinen-4-ol (3.51%), copaene (2.56%), acoradiene (2.89%) and turmerol (2.65%). Analysis results of chemical also showed that the chemical composition of Curcuma singularis contained eight isolated compounds, with two new diarylheptanoid compounds (Curcusin A and Curcusin B) showing potent inhibiting effects against sEH. In medicine, sEH inhibitors are one significant subject in cardiovascular disease research.
