Herbarium and literature studies of Liparis section Ramosae (an exclusively neotropical group) reveal two new distributional records and five hitherto undescribed species whilst one other taxon requires reduction to synonymy. The new taxa are Liparis ecallosa, L. nonatra, L. schunkei, L. serratiloba and L. vargasii. Liparis lueri Dodson is proposed as a new synonym of L. serpens Garay.
