Aristolochia wankeana (Aristolochiaceae), a new species from French Guiana and Guyana, is described and illustrated here. Floral traits, primarily of the shape and size of the perianth limb, examined through a morphometric geometric analysis, are diagnostic to distinguish the new species from its relatives A. cornuta and A. iquitensis. The species...
A large number of specimens used as original material for the description of new species were destroyed in the bombing of the Berlin-Dahlem herbarium, B, in 1943. Six lectotypes are designated here for Cordia discolor Cham., Cordia multispicata Cham., Cordia tobagensis Urb. and its variety broadwayi Urb. in the Cordiaceae and for Tournefortia panic...
Heliotropium foliatum and Tournefortia humilis are transferred to Euploca Nutt. respectively as Euploca foliata comb. n. and Euploca humilis comb. n.

Two taxa, one species of Aristolochia (Aristolochiaceae) and one variety of Passiflora (Passifloraceae), are validated. First, Aristolochia peltato-deltoidea, described by Hoehne in 1942, was originally published without a Latin diagnosis and therefore the name is invalid. The species is described herein as A. kanukuensis. Second, Killip invalidly...
