Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Abstract

In the present study, I propose a new species, Quararibea bovinii, an Atlantic Forest tree. The new taxon occurs in southeastern Brazil, in the states of Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. It resembles Q. similis in terms of floral morphology and fruit shape, but it is distinguished by the indumenta of leaves, leaf width, and seed shape.

Key words:
bifurcated trichome; conservation; domatia; Matisieae; taxonomy
