A new species, Habranthus medinae L. O. Alvarado & García-Mendoza (Amaryllidaceae, Hippeastreae), from the state of Puebla, Mexico, is described. The new species is similar to H. tubispathus (L'Héritier) Traub, but can be distinguished by the larger size of the floral structures and its brown anthers. A key to the Mexican species of Habranthus Herbert is provided.
