Echeveria munizii, a new species from the southwestern slopes of Volcán de Colima on the Colima-Jalisco border in western Mexico is described and illustrated. This species belongs to series Gibbiflorae and is most similar to E. fulgens from which it differs in having adaxially sulcate leaves with straight and hyaline margins, olive green to brownish green surface, a fewer flowered inflorescence with fewer flowers per branch, a pink / orange bicolored corolla with the inner surface pale pink to orange, the base of the carpels white, and longer pedicels. A species conservation assessment, undertaken using IUCN criteria, determines Echeveria munizii to be Critically Endangered (CR).

Rubus zielinskii M. M. Wolanin & M. N. Wolanin, a new species from south-east Poland is described and illustrated. Rubus zielinskii is a tetraploid (2n=28) belonging to the series Sprengeliani based on morphology. It is most similar to Rubus sprengelii from which it differs in the inflorescence, being leafy to the apex, the larger flowers, paler colour of the vegetative stem and straighter prickles. The species occurs mostly along forest roads, ditches and forest edges. A species conservation assessment for Rubus zielinskii determines its threat status to be Least Concern.

A New Species

Pilea nonggangensis Y. G. Wei, L. F. Fu & A. K. Monro, a new species from Guangxi, China is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically most similar to P. basicordata from which it differs by being dioecious, having peltate leaf blades, membranous stipules, paired inflorescences and larger bracts. Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and plastid trnL-F intron spacer (trnL-F) DNA sequence data from the new species and 20 local congeneric species are used to resolve the systematic position of the new species within Pilea. Despite vastly different morphology the molecular evidence suggests that P. nonggangensis is most closely related to P. pseudonotata. A Global Species Conservation Assessment classifies P. nonggangensis as Vulnerable (VU).

Epitypes are proposed for two species of Hechtia: H. subalata and H. jaliscana, both endemic to Western Mexico. The holotypes of both species consist of fruiting specimens. While the female flowers of both species are extremely similar, the staminate ones are noticeable different: we select staminate vouchers as epitypes to clearly circumscribe both taxa. As a result of the delimitation of the concept Hechtia subalata and its geographical distribution, we identify a new species from Durango, Mexico, previously misidentified as Hechtia subalata: Hechtia marthae. We provide images portraying plant parts of all species, as well as photographs in habitat. Finally, assessments of the conservation status of the three species sensu IUCN criteria are included.

Parietaria semispeluncaria Yıldırım, a new species endemic to eastern Anatolia, Turkey is described and illustrated. P. semispeluncaria Yıldırım is most similar to P. rechingeri Chrtek from which it can be distinguished by stem, leaf, inflorescence and flower morphology. P. semispeluncaria is a perennial obligate chasmophyte that colonizes calcareous marlstone cliffs. It is known from a single locality in the Levent Canyon, Malatya Province. A species conservation assessment classifies P. semispeluncaria as ‘Vulnerable’ (VU) D1 + 2 on account of its restricted distribution.

The new species is morphologically similar to Anchietea ferrucciae Paula-Souza & Zmarzty, endemic to the Caatinga in Bahia state, being recognized by its obovate to suborbicular fruit valves, ovate or widely elliptic to suborbicular leaves and more congested arrangement of leaves and flowers/fruits. An updated key to the species of Anchietea A.St.-Hil. is provided, and a preliminary conservation assessment using IUCN criteria are provided for both the new species and and A. ferrucciae.            Anchietea ballardii Paula-Souza, uma nova espécie de Violaceae endêmica de inselbergs do Espírito Santo, Brasil, é descrita e ilustrada. A nova espécie é morfologicamente relacionada à Anchietea ferrucciae Paula-Souza & Zmarzty, endêmica da Caatinga da Bahia, sendo distinta pelas valvas dos frutos obovais a suborbiculares, folhas ovais ou largamente elípticas a suborbiculares e arranjo mais congesto de folhas e flores/frutos. Uma chave de identificação atualizada para as espécies de Anchietea A.St.-Hil. é apresentada, assim como a avaliação de seu status de conservação e o de A. ferrucciae.

Taraxacum sandomiriense Wolanin, a new species of Taraxacum sect. Erythrosperma from Poland is described. It is a triploid (2n=24) characterized by strongly corniculated inner bracts, brown-colored achenes and distinctly haired leaves. It is an extremely rare taxon found in the xerothermic plant communities in the Świętokrzyskie Province. The species conservation assessment for T. sandomiriense determines its threat status as Critically Endangered, since it consists of three populations with a very small number of individuals. A detailed species description, photographs, distribution map, notes on ecology and chorology are provided.
