Hydnophytum (Psychotrieae Hydnophytinae) is revised. A key is provided, and an informal infrageneric grouping is proposed. Variation in tuber structure is discussed. Fifty-five species are recognised, of which 19 are described as new. For one species a number of varieties are also described. Forty-four species are found in New Guinea, of which 41 are endemic. The recent transfer of a number of taxa into an expanded concept of Squamellaria based on a molecular phylogeny is addressed. Three taxa of Squamellaria are included in this revision to complete the series of papers on the tuberous epiphytes of the Rubiaceae.
