Abstract

Aphanandrium, a genus of herbs and shrubs in the Acanthaceae from the Neotropics, is reinstated based on a previous phylogenetic study, and the following new combinations are herein presented: Aphanandrium grandifolius, A. harlingii var. harlingii, A. harlingii var. longifolius, and A. nitidus. Also, Aphanandrium narupayacuensis, a distinctive new species from the lowlands of northeastern Ecuador, is formally described and illustrated, and its relationship to morphologically closely related species is discussed.

Aphanandrium Lindau, un género de pequeños arbustos of Acanthaceae del Neotrópico es validado con base en un estudio filogenético previo y se presentan las siguientes nuevas combinaciones: Aphanandrium grandifolius, A. harlingii var. harlingii, A. harlingii var. longifolius, y A. nitidus. Además, se presenta formalmente a Aphanandrium narupayacuensis, una distintiva nueva especie de las tierras bajas del noreste de Ecuador, se discute sus relaciones con las especies morfológicamente cercanas.
