As a result of ongoing studies on Hohenbergia in Bahia, Brazil, here we describe and illustrate Hohenbergia erecta, endemic to the municipality of Mucugê, at Chapada Diamantina. Hohenbergia erecta differs from its morphologically related, H. cat...

Recent botanical explorations carried out in the Guerrero state for the project Bromeliaceae of Mexico led to the discovery of two new species, both endemic to Guerrero: Hechtia kruseana and H. rosamariae. The new taxa are compared with the morphologically similar: H. anarosae, H. caulescens, H. jaliscana and H. stenopetala. Hechtia kruseana differ...

... Species delimitation based on gross morphology alone has been criticized in the last decade for not being considered an objective method (Zapata and Jiménez 2012; Cadena et al. 2018;Cheng et al. 2021). However, new plant species are still described based only in classical morphology (Cardoso et al. 2019;Flores et al. 2019;Cavalcante et al. 2022;Ferreira and Louzada 2022;Bazante et al. 2023;Ancona et al. 2023), because morphological characters are still the most accessible for the generation and confirmation of taxonomic categories at many levels of organization. ...
