An enlarged circumscription of Bifrenaria (Orchidaceae: Maxillariiinae).
A revised delimitation of Bifrenaria broadens the genus to include the previously accepted genera Guanchezia, Horvatia, Hylaeorchis, Rudolfiella, Scuticaria, and Teuscheria. These genera as currently circumscribed are changed to sections, and their respective species transferred or combined along with newly synonymised species. Bifrenaria sect. Stenocoryne and B. sect. Adipe are...Meneguzzo, Tniago E. C. ; Chase, Mark W.

Myrcianthes (Myrtaceae) revisited: a new species, a new synonym, a lectotypification and an overview of its wood anatomy.
Myrcianthes is a New World genus of Myrtaceae (Tribe Myrteae) with 38 currently accepted species that was monographed in 1992. This paper proposes a new species, Myrcianthes cruciata from Northeastern Brazil (Bahia, Ceará and Sergipe), the synonymization of M. cavalcantei under M. fragrans and the lectotypification of the former name.... -

Molecular phylogenetics of Maranta (Marantaceae: Zingiberales): non-monophyly and support for a wider circumscription.
Neotropical Maranta has repeatedly emerged as non-monophyletic in molecular phylogenetic studies, but no taxonomic changes have been proposed due to previous weak support for the main clades and overall sparse taxonomic sampling. Our study includes a phylogenetic hypothesis strictly based on molecular evidence, using nuclear ribosomal (nrITS) and plastid (rps16,... -

An annotated synopsis of Leiothrix (Eriocaulaceae) with additional nomenclatural notes.
Previous morphological and molecular studies indicate that the genus Leiothrix is a monophyletic and well supported clade in Eriocaulaceae. A taxonomic revision of the genus for the Flora Neotropica is in progress, but with the Flora do Brasil 2020 project now in its final stages, this synopsis became necessary to...Giulietti, Ana Maria

A New and Expanded Phylogenetic Analysis of Hyptidinae (Ocimeae-Lamiaceae).
Hyptidinae, ca. 400 species, is an important component of Neotropical vegetation formations. Members of the subtribe possess flowers arranged in variously modified bracteolate cymes and nutlets with an expanded areole and all share a unique explosive mechanism of pollen release, except for . In a recent phylogenetic study, the group... -
