C. ×batangkayensis Ipor, Ørgaard & N. Jacobsen

Already in 2004 Isa Ipor found an unknown Cryptocoryne in Western Sarawak what looked somewhat like C.×purpurea nothovar. purpurea from the Malay peninsula and gave it the working name "nothovar. sarawacensis" This latter plant proved to be a natural hybrid between C. cordata var. cordata and C. griffithii and is fully sterile. As var. cordata does not grow in Borneo at all, the close related C. cordata var.grabowskii could replace, but C. griffithii is only known from southern Borneo and is not reported from Sarawak.
so it could not be

polled defect - hybrid with ??
2n=85?

as a hybrid between C. cordata var. grabowskii and C. ferruginea var. ferruginea.
