Pleurothallis subsection Macrophyllae-Fasciculatae is the most species-rich infrageneric grouping within this genus. Within this subsection, based on floral and vegetative morphology, we recognize the P. cardiostola-P. lilijae complex, an expansion of Luer's previously proposed subsection Cardiostolae. The nature of the two species P. cardiostola and P. lilijae is clarified here to allow comparison to an additional 24 possible members of the complex. Recognizing P. lanigera as distinct from P. cardiostola, and the other putative species as distinct from each other, brings the complex of previously described species to 26. In the process of reviewing living material and photographs of these species, as well as of the many plants misidentified as P. lilijae, it quickly became apparent that there are multiple undescribed species in this group. Six new species from Colombia, Ecuador and Peru are described herein. Each species is typified, described and illustrated, in most cases with a drawing, a composite digital plate, photos to show floral variability, and a scanning electron micrograph of the lip. Including these additional 6 species brings the P. cardiostola-P. lilijae complex to 32 members, which is both more numerous and more widely distributed than the P. cardiothallis-P. titan complex. One characteristic of species in this group is the copious production of nectar-like liquid on the lip and a prominent glenion.","PeriodicalId":39248,"journal":{"name":"Harvard Papers in Botany","volume":"27 1","pages":"187 - 220"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44032509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new species and two new records of Securidaca were found during the preparation of an updated checklist of Polygalaceae for the Nuevo Catálogo de la Flora de Venezuela and Catálogo de Plantas y Líquenes de Colombia. Securidaca aquae-nigrae from the upper Rio Negro (northern/northwestern Amazon basin) and part of the adjacent southwestern Orinoco basins of Colombia and Venezuela, is described and illustrated, and its morphological relationships with an allied species are discussed. This new species is similar to S. coriacea, but it differs by its leaves, the size and shape of the outer and lateral enlarged sepals, the inflorescence and fruit size, and the keel petal without a well-developed apical crest. Securidada fragilis and S. leiocarpa, two species previously known from Ecuador and Peru, are reported here as new country records for the flora of Colombia. A lectotypification of Securidaca schlimii is also proposed. In a geographical and taxonomical context, Securidaca amazonica is considered different from S. rivinifolia and S. volubilis, while S. densiflora is treated here as a synonym of S. pubescens, and S. dasycarpa as a synonym of S. diversifolia.

Esta nueva especie es similar a S. coriacea, sin embargo, difiere por poseer las hojas, los sépalos externos y laterales desiguales en tamaño y forma, las inflorescencias y frutos de tamaño diferentes y la quilla (el pétalo inferior) sin una cresta bien desarrollada. S. fragilis y S. leiocarpa, dos especies previamente conocidas para Ecuador y Perú, se registran para la flora de Colombia. Se propone la leptotipificación de Securidaca schlimii.

The second species, K. capixaba, should be placed in Ehretiaceae.
