A glimpse into the diversity of Colombian Acanthaceae.
A short visit to four Colombian herbaria in 2022 is highlighted as an example of modern-day herbarium plant hunting which resulted in the discovery of 14 new species: J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood & Hoyos-Gómez, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood & Hoyos-Gómez, J.R.I.Wood & Hoyos-Gómez, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood & Hoyos-Gómez, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood, J.R.I.Wood & Hoyos-Gómez...Wood, John R.

Bridging local and scientific knowledge for area-based conservation of useful plants in Colombia.
While the importance of interdisciplinary approaches is increasingly recognised in conservation, bridging knowledge systems across scales remains a fundamental challenge. Focusing on the Important Plant Areas (IPA) approach, we evaluate how complementing scientific and local knowledge can better inform the conservation of useful plants in Colombia. We worked in three... -

Checklist of Orchidaceae from Caquetá, Colombia.
A checklist of Orchidaceae from Caquetá, Colombia is presented here. We recorded 98 genera and 418 species, exceeding a previous inventory by 276 species. The checklist is conservative in the number of genera and species by including only taxa that were fully and reliably identified and that are either linked... -

Re-establishment of Pithecellobium subglobosum in Colombia and Venezuela (Leguminosae, Mimosoideae, tribe Ingeae).
Pithecellobium subglobosum is re-established as a species and P. concinnum and P. larense are referred to its synonymy. A critical analysis of type specimens of Pithecellobium section Pithecellobium from the Neotropic as well as many other herbarium collections shows that P. subglobosum is a morphologically distinct species related to P.... -

A new combination is required in Conocliniopsis (Compositae: Eupatorieae: Gyptidinae).
A new combination, , in R.M.King & H.Rob. (Compositae: Eupatorieae: Gyptidinae) is provided. An earlier assessment of Prince Maximilian Wied-Neuwied’s collections (sent by Martius to Colla), proposed that Colla’s was a new synonym of (Kunth) R.M.King & H.Rob., a Colombian endemic. A critical assessment of Wied’s collection has indicated that...Hind, D. J. Nicholas

Acianthera hagsateri (Pleurothallidinae), a new species from the sub-andean forest of Colombia.
A new species of Acianthera from the relict cloud forests of Valle del Cauca, Colombia is described and illustrated. This new species, Acianthera hagsateri, morphologically resembles A. geminicaulina, A. decurrens, and A. erythrogramma, but differs from them by its shorter plants and stems, the elliptic and obtuse smaller leaves, the...
