Abstract
New synonyms and lectotypes in Sida sect. Cordifoliae (Malvaceae, Malveae) are proposed here and reveal the first record and extension of the distribution area of Sida maculata to the Brazilian semi-arid region. The species was first described in the 18th century for the Caribbean islands of Cuba and the Dominican Republic and for a long time was confused with S. cordifolia, from which it is unquestionably distinct in its leaves, inflorescences and flowers. In Brazil, S. maculata is widely distributed from Maranhão to the north of Minas Gerais and was identified for almost a century in herbaria and local floristic treatments as S. galheirensis. Discussions and photographs of types of S. maculata and related taxa are presented, as well as an updated map of the species’ geographical distribution.
期刊介绍：
Phytotaxa is a peer-reviewed, international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic and taxonomic botany, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs, floras, revisions and evolutionary studies and descriptions of new taxa. Phytotaxa covers all groups covered by the International Code of Nomenclature foralgae, fungi, and plants ICNafp (fungi, lichens, algae, diatoms, mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and vascular plants), both living and fossil. Phytotaxa was founded in 2009 as botanical sister journal to Zootaxa. It has a large editorial board, who are running this journal on a voluntary basis, and it is published by Magnolia Press (Auckland , New Zealand). It is also indexed by SCIE, JCR and Biosis.
All types of taxonomic, floristic and phytogeographic papers are considered, including theoretical papers and methodology, systematics and phylogeny, monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues, biographies and bibliographies, history of botanical explorations, identification guides, floras, analyses of characters, phylogenetic studies and phytogeography, descriptions of taxa, typification and nomenclatural papers. Monographs and other long manuscripts (of 60 printed pages or more) can be published as books, which will receive an ISBN number as well as being part of the Phytotaxa series.
