Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

During a recent botanical exploration in El Quimi Biological Reserve (Cordillera del Cóndor), Morona Santiago province, we found for the first time in Ecuador Phlegmariurus pruinosus (Herter) B. Øllg., a species previously recorded as endemic from Peru. We present a morphological description, photographs, and an updated distribution map. Additionally, we highlight the morphological differences with Phlegmariurus campianus (B. Øllg.) B. Øllg., a similar species from Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. A total of 67 species of Phlegmariurus are recorded for Ecuador.
