In preparation for a comprehensive nomenclatural review of the genus Argyreia, several unknown species were discovered. Thailand is a center of distribution for this speciose tropical Asian genus; three new Thai species, A. ankylophlebia, A. dokmaihom, and A. inaequisepala are described as a precursor to the nomenclatural review. Detailed descriptions, illustrations, and keys to species, modified from the Flora of Thailand Convolvulaceae account, are provided for each species to aid in their identification.
