A New Species

Stylotrichium is a small genus in which all the five species are restricted to the rocky field vegetation (campo rupestre) in Chapada Diamantina, Bahia state, Brazil. From recent field collections in the area we have recognized a new species based on morphology. Stylotrichium hortensiae is distinguished by laminae oblanceolate to oblong (3.5–8 × 1–3 cm), greater number of flowers (35–45), anther connective appendage as long as wide, style 6.5 mm long, and pappus 1–1.5 mm long. A species description, illustrations, a key to the species, comments, and a distribution map are provided.

Here we describe a new species of Pisonia (Caryophyllales: Nyctaginaceae) from Jamaica, named P. jamaicensis Proctor ex Caraballo, K.Campbell, & S.Cross, restricted to limestone hills in the central and western part of the island. The species description is complemented with an illustration, pictures, a distribution map, and notes on its biology and conservation, including an IUCN evaluation. We also present a list of the 27 currently accepted species of Pisonia with their general distributions, and a key to separate the 16 taxa reported for the West Indies.

A New Species

Myrcia lucasae (Myrcia sect. Gomidesia, Myrtaceae), a new species from the Bahia state, Brazil, is here described and illustrated. It differs from M. lughadhae, a closely related and sympatric species, by the strigose indumentum with ferruginous trichomes and the absence of ribs on fruits. It is also different and from M. virgata (Myrcia sect. Myrcia), by presenting thecae with irregular dorsal openings (characteristics of Myrcia sect. Gomidesia). Collections of M. lucasae have been constantly misidentified as the morphologically similar M. virgata, a species from a different section, which does not occur in the state of Bahia. Myrcia lucasae is endemic to the highly diverse campo rupestre vegetation of the Chapada Diamantina biogeographic province. We also provide preliminary conservation assessment, comments on distribution and ecological aspects of this new taxon.

A new species of Myrcia sect. Aulomyrcia is presented along with taxonomic notes on M. pinifolia. Myrcia tetraloba is a new species found in campo rupestre and cerrado vegetation from the Chapada Diamantina, Bahia, Brazil. This species resembles Myrcia hirtiflora, but differs mainly in its 4-merous flowers and unreflexed calyx lobes (vs. 5-merous, strongly reflexed). Myrcia pinifolia is a very distinctive narrow-leaved species, widely misidentified in herbaria and recognised here as belonging to Myrcia sect. Aulomyrcia; a lectotype is here chosen and a new synonym is proposed for this species.

A New Species

Formicivora grantsaui sp. nov. (Sincorá Antwren) is described from a series of specimens from the valley of the Rio Cumbuca (12 o 58’29”S, 41 o 21’29”W, elevation 860 m), 3.5 km northeast of Mucugê, Bahia, Brazil, and adjacent areas. It is more closely related to F. acutirostris, F. grisea, and F. rufa than to other species of the genus, differing from them by a combination of plumage and vocal characters. The new species is known only from the campo rupestre vegetation of the Serra do Sincorá between 850 m and 1100 m in the Chapada Diamantina, which is part of the Espinhaço Range, a distinctive area of endemism for birds and other groups of organisms in South America. In places it occurs sympatrically with F. rufa, but the two occupy different habitats.

A New Species

The Neotropical genus Pseudopaludicola includes 21 species, which occur throughout South America. Recent studies suggested that the population of Andaraí, in the state of Bahia, is an undescribed species, related to P. pocoto. Herein we formally describe this new species from lowlands of eastern Brazil. Recognition of this new species is supported by adult morphology, advertisement call, karyotype, and molecular data. It is diagnosed mainly by its small size, terminal phalanges knobbed (lack any expansion of the digital tips), proportionally short hindlimbs, 11 pairs of chromosomes, and advertisement call composed of series of three-pulsed notes, emitted at a high rate. In addition, we report for the first time the presence of P. pocoto in the campo rupestre (rupestrian grasslands) of Chapada Diamantina, a population with a much darker dorsal coloration than the population from the type locality. We also redescribed the advertisement call of P. falcipes based on recordings from topotypic males.

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.

A new species of Abarema from Brazil is described and illustrated. The new species is endemic to Morro do Chapéu, Chapada Diamantina, in the state of Bahia. Abarema diamantina shares morphological affinities with A. cochliacarpos by having a capitate raceme, strongly lenticelate branches, and median-basal pleurogram. However, there are remarkable vegetative and reproductive morphological characters which distinguish the two taxa. Here a description of the new species and illustrations are presented; a distribution map, and comments highlighting the differences between the closely related species are discussed.

Stachytarpheta atkinsiae, belonging to the Radlkoferiana group from the Chapada Diamantina, Bahia state Brazil, is here described. It is a red-flowered species, and unusual in being a large, much-branched shrub, with densely lanate indumentum. The species shows similarities with S. froesii and S. radlkoferiana, but differs from both vegetative and floral characters.We provide a full description of the species, together with illustrations, a conservation status assessment, and a distribution map.
