Abstract
A new species of Styloceras (Buxaceae), S. brokawii, is described from lowland Amazonian Peru. This is the first non-Andean species of the genus and provides significant new phytogeographical evidence as to the origins of this remarkable and isolated genus.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
