Abstract

ZARATE, Modesto. Dos nuevas especies de Chersodoma (senecioneae, asteraceae) de Bolivia. Darwiniana, nueva serie [online]. 2017, vol.5, n.1, pp.65-71. ISSN 0011-6793.

The purpose of this research is to describe two new species of Chersodoma from Bolivia: Chersodoma filifolia and C. tarijensis. Both species are small and caespitose shrubs; they differ in the number of florets per capitula, the indumentum of the leaves, and their geographic distribution: Chersodoma filifolia is known from central Bolivia and C. tarijensis from southern Bolivia. Additionally, a key for Bolivian species of the genus, a comparative table between the two new species and the most closely related species, and a map with the distribution of the two new species are provided.

Keywords : Asteraceae; Bolivia; Chersodoma; Senecioneae.
