Abstract
A new species of Begonia sect. Ruizopavonia A.DC., B. pseudodendron Moonlight & Á.J.Pérez, is described from the western slopes of the Andes in the Colombian Department of Nariño and the Ecuadorian Province of Carchi. The new species is diagnosed against Begonia cymbalifera L.B.Sm. & B.G.Schub. and compared with other similar species. We also provide photographs, a distribution map, and an IUCN conservation assessment for the new species, which is classified as Endangered (EN) due to habitat destruction.
