Brongniartia balsensis J. Jiménez Ramírez & K. Vega (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae), a new and endemic species from the Balsas Depression, is described and illustrated. This species is similar to B. guerrerensis J. Jiménez Ramírez & J. L. Contreras, but differs from it by having a greater number of leaflets and larger pedicels, bracteoles, calyx, standard, wings, and keel; there are also differences in the form of the standard, the color of the keel (green), and the possession of a lightly winged legume.
