Abstract: | Tournefortia vasquezii J. S. Miller is described from Cajamarca, Peru. It is a distinctive species with setaceous sepals, 4-6 mm long, and its unusual bullate leaves are unique in the genus. While its relationships within the genus are not clear, it shares its shrubby growth form, setaceous sepals, ovate corolla lobes, and elongate styles with Tournefortia spicata J. S. Miller and T. restrepoae J. S. Miller, other understory species of mid-elevation Andean forests. |
