Note.

For the type, Cuatrecasas (1941) cited three collections, viz., “ 23-III-1940, J. Cuatrecasas no. 8561 ”, “ 22-III-40, J. Cuatrecasas, 8599 - A ”, and “ 26-III-1940, J. Cuatrecasas, 8714 ”. Bernardi (1961: 144) cited J. Cuatrecasas 8561 as the type housed in the F Herbarium. We found two duplicates of this collection in the F herbarium and chose one of them for the second-step lectotypification. Bernal (2016: 1128) treats this species as a synonym of W. subsessiliflora Ruiz & Pav.
