A new species, B. woytkowskii, is described from northern Peru. Two species are restricted to northern Peru, and all northern Andean species occur there. Three species also occur in Ecuador and a single species in Colombia. Baccharis subbimera is neotypified and the species endemic to the northern Andes are described and illustrated. Morphological delimitation of species is discussed, and a determination key is provided.
