First record of Chomelia triflora (J.H. Kirkbr.) Delprete & Achille (Rubiaceae) from Brazil

Résumé

This paper presents the first record of Chomelia triflora from Brazil, to date a species only known from French Guiana. After examining herbaria collections and doing fieldwork in the Brazilian Amazon, we found that the species also occurs in and around the Ducke Reserve in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. Our finding increases the data about the Brazilian Amazon and contributes to the better knowledge of Chomelia in Brazil.
