Abstract

Virola aequatorialis is described as a new species from the coastal plain of Ecuador; it differs from the southeast Brazilian V. gardneri in several characters including its prominently reticulate leaves and the anthers which are obtuse and slightly shorter than the filament column. Osteophloeum platyspermum var. sulcatum and Otoba glycycarpa are proposed as new combinations.
