Branchinecta fueguina, a new species of fairy shrimp, was found together with B. granulosa in a temporary pond beside Laguna de los Cisnes, 53°47'12''S, 67°46'55''W, Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas del Atlántico Sur Province (Argentina). The male second antennal basal article has a proximal, anteriomedial auriculate welt, covered with sensory setae and a hanging posteriomedial ornamented apophysis bending abruptly anteriorly with a rounded apex. Distally, the basal article has a longitudinal medial crest, proximally produced into a blunt posteriomedially directed point. The distal article is strongly rotated, articulating almost perpendicular to the basal article. The anterior surface of the article is triangular, from its proximal joint to the broadly explanate apex. Distally, the broadened article bends anteriorly forming a complex three-lobed apex. The peculiar joint with the basal article and the distal article shape are unique in the genus.

Ruellia anamariae, a new species of Acanthaceae is herein described and illustrated from the municipalities of Parauapebas and São Geraldo do Araguaia, Pará State, Brazil. The new species is recognized by its habit, a shrub up to 5 meters high, by its terminal thyrsus inflorescence, by its greenish-yellow corolla with the expanded portion of the tube suburceolate, strongly revolute lobes and shortly exserted stamens. It is also morphologically similar to Ruellia exserta, but differs by its habit, a shrub (not liana), inflorescence, thyrsus with opposite dichasia (not secundiflorous thyrsus) and short exserted stamens (not long exserted), and to Ruellia beckii differing by its habit, a shrub (not liana) end calyx lobes oblong-lanceolate with acute apex (not oblanceolate to obovate with retuse to obtuse apex). We provide a detailed description, illustrations, comments, data on distribution and habitat and conservation status of the species.

A new species, Drepanolejeunea glimeae (Marchantiophyta: Lejeuneaceae), is described and illustrated from Brunei Darussalam. It was discovered in the lowland rainforests in Ulu Temburong. This new species is distinguished by the absence of gynoecial innovations, erectly to obliquely spreading underleaf lobes, large leaf lobule about 1/2 as long as the lobe, acute to obtuse apex of the leaf, occasional occurrence of ribbon-like regenerants at leaf margins, and occasional presence of ocelli in the female bracteole.

Oberonia integrilabris (Orchidaceae), a new species from Yunnan, China, is described and illustrated. The species is most similar to O. jhae and O. segawae, but differs from O. jhae by its leaf basal joint, oblong petals with irregularly toothed margin and obtuse apex and is distinguished from O. segawae by its petals with irregularly toothed margin and obdeltoid lip with entire margin and acute apex. The conservation status of O. integrilabris is assessed as CR.

A New Species

A new species of Nepenthes—Nepenthes putaiguneung—from the highlands of Sumatra (Indonesia) is described and illustrated. This new species is morphologically similar with N. Singalana from which differs in having narrowly spathulate leaves, more gracile upper pitchers with a finely ribbed peristome, lacking teeth on its inner edge, lid with a basal crest and a short tooth-like triangular appendage near the apex on the underside (not lacking such appendages), the lid glands of lower pitcher confined to the midline (not scattered evenly over the whole surface), and pedicel of lower male flowers usually with minutely short bracteole. N. putaiguneung is also similar to N. mikei but differs in having narrowly spathulate leaves with obtuse apex, lower pitcher with slender infundibulate shape below and cylindrical above, peristome of lower pitcher with short and denser distinct ribs, lid of lower and upper pitcher with a prominent glandular crest at the base of midrib, several distinct glands on the lid of lower pitcher that clustered along the midrib; and pedicel of lower male flowers that usually with minutely short bracteole.

A new species in Trichosalpinx is described, illustrated, and compared with similar species, and a new record for Peru is described and illustrated. A brief history of the genus is provided. Trichosalpinx reticulata is most similar to T. carmeniae, but differs with a reticulated, gray-green leaf; a longer inflorescence; and a lip with a pair of low, rounded basal lobes and an obtuse apex. Trichosalpinx acremona is recorded from Peruvian collections.

During fieldwork to investigate bryophyte communities in disjunct areas of savannas in the Eastern Amazon, a new species of Cheilolejeunea was collected. The genus contains species mainly inhabiting tropical rain forests, which also occur in seasonal forests or xeromorphic forests, such as Cheilolejeunea adnata, Cheilolejeunea discoidea, and Cheilolejeunea rigidula. The aim of this paper is to describe and illustrate the new species, as well as to present comments on its morphology, taxonomy and distribution. The new species is characterized by profusely branched, creeping plants with leaves widely spreading to squarrose, imbricate, suborbicular to obovate with usually incurved, rounded to obtuse apex and mammillose leaf cells, often with a lenticular papilla on the dorsal surface. Further diagnostic characters, as well as comments on its distribution and similarities with related species, are given.

Abstract We describe Macrocentrum aurimontium (Melastomataceae: Merianieae), a new species that has been collected twice in the state of Pará, Northern Brazil. Macrocentrum aurimontium closely resembles M. latifolium, a species from French Guiana, due to its isomorphic leaves and 4-merous flowers, but differs from it by the eglandular trichomes up to 4 mm long on the adaxial foliar surface (vs. glabrous or deciduously strigulose, then the trichomes 0.1–0.2 mm long in M. latifolium), denticulate to denticulate-serrulate, always ciliate leaf margin (vs. minutely serrulate, eciliate), sepals 0.5–0.7 mm long, triangular to broadly triangular, with an obtuse to rounded apex, the external teeth projecting 0.2–0.5 mm above them (vs. sepals ca. 0.1 mm long, oblate, the external teeth with the same size as the sepals) and the fruits shorter and narrower (2.7–3.7 × 1.2–1.4 mm vs. 4–5.5 × 3.1–4 mm).
