In this study, Fritillaria arsusiana (Liliaceae) is described and illustrated as a new species from Hatay province in southern Anatolia, Turkey. It is related to F. amana and F. hermonis by habitus features and broadly campanulate flowers, but differs mainly by its bulb shape and size, smaller leaf and flower features, and flower colour. It has also been morphologically compared with F. wendelboi, F. pinardii, and F. latakiensis. The detailed description, diagnostic characters, original photographs, geographical distribution, habitat and phenology, etymology, conservation status, and identification key of the new and the related species are presented in this study. IUCN conservation status of F. arsusiana is suggested as Critically Endangered (CR).

Four specimens of Phallus were collected during surveys in a Pinus armandii forest in Baoshan, Yunnan Province, China. Macro- and micro-characteristics, together with Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequence data, showed that the four specimens belong to a new species, here named Phallus haitangensis. The ITS phylogenetic analyses, morphological descriptions, color photographs, and line drawings are provided, and compared with closely related species in the genus.

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.

Eugenia caipora (Myrtaceae), a new species from northeastern Brazil, is here described; it occurs in restinga vegetation, Tabuleiros litorâneos (Tabuleiro savanna), and seasonal forests in Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Alagoas. The new species is morphologically similar to Eugenia azuruensis, though differing by the leaf blades abaxially glabrous to puberulent (vs. densely tomentose in E. azuruensis), non-mucronate (vs. mucronate), with flat margins (vs. revolute), calyx lobes 4–5 mm wide (vs. 6–10 mm), rounded at the apex (vs. apiculate), and petals 5–15 mm long (vs. 20–24 mm). A table of diagnostic characters for the new and related species and photographs of morphological diagnostic characters are provided.

A new species, Miconia yeseniae, is described and illustrated. The species is part of the Amblyarrhena section and is distinguished from others of the genus by the large (2–2.5 cm long) pink petals, the well-developed outer calyx teeth (4.9–5.1 mm long) and the 10-angular ovary. The most related species are Miconia glandulistyla, M. floribunda, M. codonostigma, M. glandulistyla and M. grandiflora. The new species reaches 8 m in height and is known only from the type locality, on the slopes of Cerro Golondrinas, on the Andean flanks of the northwest of Ecuador, in the humid forest.
