藉由對東亞地區布?德屬植物新鮮或乾燥標本的觀察與文獻查詢，本研究確認毛布?德藤(Bredia hirsuta var. hirsuta)存在於臺灣，確?布?德藤(B. scandens)的分?地位，並提出下?的新組合學名：?底紅(B. hirsuta var. fordii)、峨眉野海棠(B. scandens var. omeiensis)、鴨腳?(B. yaeyamensis var. sinensis)、沖繩布?德木(B. yaeyamensis var. okinawensis)。本研究亦分別提供臺灣與世界產布?德屬檢?表。

Field, herbarium and literature studies of Bredia species (Melastomataceae) in East Asia has revealed that Bredia hirsuta is distributed in Taiwan and B. scandens should be an independent species from B. hirsuta. Four new combinations are also proposed: B. hirsuta var. fordii, B. scandens var. omeiensis, B. yaeyamensis var. sinensis, B. yaeyamensis var. okinawensis. Keys to the taxa of the genus Bredia in Taiwan and in the world were provided.
