  abstract = {{M}angosteen ({G}arcinia mangostana var. mangostana) is a dioecious and agamospermous cultivated fruit tree. {I}t has two recognised hypothetical wild ancestors, {G}arcinia mangostana var. malaccensis and {G}. mangostana var. borneensis, distributed in the lowland dipterocarp-dominated forests of {S}umatra, the {M}alay {P}eninsula, and {B}orneo. {T}he highly similar morphological characters between the cultivated and wild varieties have posed challenges in identification. {A}dditionally, {G}arcinia penangiana is often mistaken for {G}.  mangostana var. malaccensis, and {G}. venulosa is regarded as morphologically similar to {G}. mangostana var. borneensis. {I}n the present study, we conducted morphometric analyses of {G}arcinia mangostana var. mangostana, {G}. mangostana var. borneensis, {G}.  mangostana var. malaccensis, {G}. penangiana and {G}. venulosa. {W}e assessed the efficacy of morphological characters in combination (vegetative-male flowers-female flowers) in distinguishing the taxa as recognised in the current taxonomy. {I}n our morphometric analyses, we found that {G}arcinia penangiana and {G}. venulosa are well delimited and congruent with their current taxonomic designations. {A} combination of vegetative and male-flower characters provided the most definitive delimitation. {W}e recovered the specific coherence of {G}arcinia mangostana, but the infraspecific delineations of {G}. mangostana var. mangostana, {G}. mangostana var. borneensis and {G}. mangostana var. malaccensis are not supported.},
