Abstract
Based on study of herbarium specimens, Cyperus rosattii is described as a new species from Venezuela. Known from a single collection from the Orinoco lowlands, it appears to be most similar to Cyperus swartzii and C. aggregatus. Similarly, Cyperus gonzaleziae is described as a new species from eastern Mexico (coastal region of Veracruz); it appears to be most similar to C. pallidicolor and C. regiomontanus.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Botanical Research Institute of Texas, formerly called Sida, Contributions to Botany, publishes research in classical and modern systematic botany—including studies of anatomy, biogeography, chemotaxonomy, ecology, evolution, floristics, genetics, paleobotany, palynology, and phylogenetic systematics. Geographic coverage is global. Articles are published in either English or Spanish; an abstract is provided in both languages. All contributions are peer reviewed and frequently illustrated with maps, line drawings, and full color photographs.
