Abstract

Moquiniastrum glabrum is here described as a new species of Tribe Gochnatieae from the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, Goiás, Brazil. The new species is recognized by having a monoecious reproductive system, glabrous branches and leaf blades, 9–11-seriate involucral bracts, and 30–35 florets per capitulum, all of which are bisexual. Illustrations, comments, a preliminary conservation status, and an updated key to the taxa of Moquiniastrum are provided.
