摘要

A new species of Miconia sect. Miconia subsection Seriatiflorae. was collected in Igapo Forest from the Purus-Madeira interfluve, in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. This new species, Miconia suberosa, can be distinguished from other species in the subsection by a variety of morphological features, namely: (i) treelet habit; (ii) deeply fissured bark with a thick cork; (iii) long dendritic hairs with short arms on young branches, inflorescences and leaves; (iv) petiolated leaves with rounded to obtuse bases, and ciliate margins, congested at the branch apices; and, (v) truncated stigmas.
