Abstract
Bolivian Begonia are among the most poorly studied of American begonias. We provide here a checklist and key to the Bolivian Begonia flora, which currently includes ten sections, 43 species, three subspecies and three varieties. We also fully discuss the nomenclature and typification of all Bolivian Begonia species and designate 16 lectotypes. We describe and provide an illustration of one new species and provide emended descriptions for eight species. We have assessed six species for extinction risk under IUCN Red List criteria and provide four new synonyms. We compare our checklist with previous treatments of Bolivian Begonia and discuss all changes in detail.
Las begonias de Bolivia se encuentran entre las begonias americanas menos estudiadas. Proporcionamos una lista de verificación y una clave para la flora de begonias de Bolivia, que actualmente incluye diez secciones, 43 especies, tres subespecies y tres variedades. También proporcionamos una discusión completa de la nomenclatura y tipificación de todas las especies bolivianas de Begonia y designamos 16 lectotipos. Describimos e ilustramos una nueva especie y adicionamos descripciones corregidas para ocho especies. Evaluamos seis especies en riesgo de extinción según los criterios de la lista roja de la UICN y proponemos cuatro nuevos sinónimos. Comparamos nuestra lista de verificación con tratamientos anteriores sobre las begonias bolivianas y discutimos todos los cambios en detalle.
期刊介绍:
Edinburgh Journal of Botany is an international journal of plant systematics covering related aspects of biodiversity, conservation science and phytogeography for plants and fungi. The journal is a particularly valued forum for research on South East and South West Asian, Sino-Himalayan and Brazilian biodiversity. The journal also publishes important work on European, Central American and African biodiversity and encourages submissions from throughout the world. Commissioned book reviews are also included. All papers are peer reviewed and an international editorial board provides a body of expertise to reflect the wide range of work published and the geographical spread of the journal’s authors and readers.
