Resumen:
Desmodium amplistipulaceum, a new species from the evergreen tropical
forest of La Sepultura Biosphere Reserve, Chiapas, is described and
illustrated. Morphologically it is very similar to Desmodium helleri,
but it differs from this by persistent and widely ovate stipules;
inflorescences in simple racemes and slightly hirsute sessile loments
with 4 or 5 articles. It includes a morphological description, map of
distribution and comparative photographs of the calyx, trichomes of
calyx and gynoecium and stigma for both species, as well as an
identification key to differentiate all the Desmodium species from La
Sepultura, Chiapas.
