Rhizomes fleshy, weakly aromatic, compacted, densely branched, 0.8–2.7 cm in diameter, brown externally, purplish internally; root tubers terete, distant from the rhizomes, ca 5 × 1.5 cm, brownish externally. Leafy shoots forming dense clumps, spreading, each shoot comprising 7–21 well-developed leaves at flowering. Leaves evergreen, simple, distichous; ligules ca 5 mm long, bilobed, membranaceous, pale green, auriculate; petiole 3−7 mm long, connate a pulvinus; lamina elliptic to narrowly ovate, 12−23 × 2−7 cm, length/ width ratio 2.8−6.7, adaxially green, glabrous, abaxially pale green sometimes flush, pubescent, base cuneate or obtuse, apex acuminate, margin entire, undulate, chartaceous. Inflorescences 1–4 per plant, arising from rhizomes; peduncles 2–8.3 cm long, ascending, glabrous; spike narrowly cylindrical, ca 8–9.3 × 2.0– 2.5 cm, each with 3–8 flowers; fertile bracts greenish-red, lanceolate, 2.3–3.3 × 0.5–1.0 cm, usually red tinged, involute on both sides, apex acute to attenuate, glabrous externally and internally; bracteole lanceolate, 1.7–2.2 × 0.4–0.6 cm, translucent reddish with slight red tinge, apex acute, involute on both sides, glabrous externally and internally. Flowers 6.2–7.3 cm long, much exserted beyond the bracts; calyx tubular, membranaceous, 5–10 mm long, with unilateral incision, translucent. Corolla tube slender, 2.6–3.4 cm long, creamy-white, glabrous externally and internally; dorsal corolla lobe lanceolate, ca 2.5 × 0.7 cm, red, apex acuminate, glabrous; lateral corolla lobes lanceolate, ca 2.3 × 0.6 cm, red, apex acuminate, glabrous; labellum widely obovate, ca 2.9 × 1.9 cm, purple, apex retuse, with scattered cream-white patches at base, glabrous; lateral staminodes narrowly oblong, ca 2.3 × 0.4 cm, connate to labellum at basal ⅓ to ¼, purple, apices obtuse, glabrous. Stamen one; filament ca 2 mm, glabrous; anther connective tissue creamy-white, elongate appendage wrapped around style; anther thecae two, ca 1.1 cm long, longitudinal dehiscence, pollen light yellow; anther crest beak-shaped, ca 1.3 cm long when stretched, purple, apex entire. Style filiform, white, ca 5.6 cm long, extending to the end of anther crest; stigma white, ciliate. Ovary cylindrical, trilocular, ca 5.0 × 2.8 mm, yellowish green, pubescent; epigynous glands two, narrowly conical, ca 5 mm long, pale yellow, apices sharp. Capsule elliptic, dehiscence loculicidal, ca 3.3 × 1.4 cm, usually shorter or as long as the persistent bract, pericarp yellowish-red and red inside. Seed ellipsoid, ca 6.5 × 4.5 mm, enveloped by the aril. Aril white, enveloping ¾ of the length of the seeds. Phenology Flowering from August to November and fruiting from October to February. Distribution Endemic to Taiwan. Conservation status This species was evaluated as Least Concerned (LC) by the Editorial Committee of the Red List of Taiwan Plants (2017). Notes According to ICN art. 23.5 (Turland et al. 2018), the adjective form of the species epithet must agree with the gender of the generic name, and must be corrected when not conforming to this article. Therefore, the gender of the original spelling of ʻ shuanglongensis ʼ by Yeh et al. (2013) did not conform to the neuter gender of ʻ Zingiber ʼ, thus needed to be corrected to ʻ shuanglongense ʼ. Bai et al. (2015b) also made the same correction for this specific epithet.
