The genus Wrightia is revised for the Malesian region. Eight species are recognized, one of which has two subspecies. One new species, Wrightia palawanensis, is described, and one new combination, Wrightia novobritannica, is made. A key to the species is given, and the taxa are described. Lectotypes and neotypes are designated for a number of names.
