Conservation status: — Schizostachyum grande has an EOO of 46,555.0 km 2, which places it in the Least Concern (LC) conservation category while its small AOO of less than 500 km 2 (108.0 km 2) puts this species in the Endangered (EN) category. However, as there are many populations together with many individuals usually found both inside and outside the protected areas, we therefore consider the conservation status of S. Grande in the LC category according to IUCN (2023). Vernacular name: —ไผ่ตากวาง (Phai Ta Kwang), ไผ่ เหนียง (Phai Neing), ไผ่เหมียง (Phai Miang), ไผ่เหลียง (Phai Lieang). Notes: —Foliage leaves of S. grande are used to wrap bachang, a steamed Chinese glutinous rice dumpling. Nomenclatural notes: —According to Ridley (1920), S. grande was described based on the following specimens; Ridley 8457 & 12043, Machado 11591, Curtis 3475 and Ridley 7787, which were collected from Semangkok Pass, Selangor, Malaysia. In 1958, Holttum designated Ridley 12043 as the lectotype. However, there are two duplicates of Ridley 12043 deposited in K and SING. According to Art. 9.17 in the Shenzhen code (Turland et al. 2018), the typification proposed by Holttum (1958) is considered a first-step lectotypification.Here, a second-step lectotypification is carried out by designating the specimen of Ridley 12043 deposited at SING (SING0054954) as the lectotype of S. grande since it comprises complete flowering specimens and the rest of the specimens are treated as isolectotypes.
