Phyllanthus balgooyi Petra Hoffm. & A.J.M. Baker (Euphorbiaceae s.l. or Phyllanthaceae) is described from Palawan (Philippines) and Sabah (Malaysian Borneo) as a species of Phyllanthus sect. Emblicastrum. The species is restricted to ultramafic sites and easily identified by its unusual leaf venation and its jade-green sap. It is the second most visibly nickel-accumulating plant known to date.
