Leaves discolorous; petiole 4–6 mm long, channelled, densely pilose on upper margin; lamina lanceolate, 15–40 × 4–7 mm, base rounded to subtruncate, apex acute to acuminate; abaxial surface scattered pilose, densely pilose on main veins, adaxial surface with scattered trichomes, with 2 or 3 conic colleters at base; venation brochidodromous with 4–7 pairs of secondary veins. Inflorescences extra-axillary, alternate, with 3–7 flowers per cyme, at most 2 in simultaneous anthesis; peduncle filiform, 25–45 × 0.4–0.5 mm, glabrous or nearly so; bracts ovate, c. 0.7 × 0.4 mm, abaxially pilose. Flowers: pedicel filiform, 15–25 × 0.2–0.3 mm, glabrous; calyx lobes ovate, c. 0.8 × 0.4 mm, abaxially pilose, margin ciliate, apex subacute; corolla dark purple, rotate, tube c. 2.5 mm in diam., lobes reflexed, oblong-lanceolate, 4–4.5 × 1.2– 1.7 mm, abaxially glabrous, adaxial base with scattered trichomes, adaxial distal half covered with short, verrucose trichomes (becoming densely pilose toward tip). Gynostegial corona green with purplish tinge, c. 2 mm in diam., lobes connected to gynostegial stipe, arching upright, c. 0.8 mm high and then horizontally extending to c. 0.5 mm, forming spreading, subrectangular tubes open at bottom; gynostegium stipitate, c. 1 × 1.4 mm, c. 2 × as long as corona lobes, basally narrowing, stipe c. 0.5 × 1 mm; anthers subrectangular, c. 1.1 × 0.8 mm, anther appendages deltate, c. 0.45 × 0.7 mm, translucent, appressed to style head, guide rails c. 0.8 mm long, narrowly triangular, inclined. Style head and pollinaria not seen. Follicles and seeds not seen.</p><p>Phenology — The single gathering documented was found flowering in December.</p><p>Etymology — The specific epithet refers to the unusual gynostegial corona with the single corona lobes reminiscent of rotor blades.</p><p>Remarks — Scyphostelma rotorum appears to belong to the S. harlingii group for morphological reasons. Particularly in the filiform inflorescence structures and the corolla, S. rotorum closely resembles S. harlingii, differing only in minor quantitative aspects. Unfortunately, we failed to separate pollinaria. In addition, leaf shape is virtually identical in the two species, even though the leaves of S. rotorum are much smaller (15–40 × 4–7 mm vs 30–70 × 7–27 mm in S. harlingii). Scyphostelma harlingii occurs also in Peru (Fig. 3; two gatherings, see above); therefore S. rotorum could be regarded as the most southern extension of S. harlingii (into Cusco). However, as we did not observe any floral variability in S. harlingii, and as the gynostegial dimensions and coronal structures, though based on the same general structure, are so different from each other in terms of corona lobe shape, size and colour, we propose this as new species endemic to Valle del Pilcopata.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BE6020FFBBFF8BE847040CFD51C2EF	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Gynostegial corona creamish, c. 4 mm in diam., shallowly cup-shaped, only very basally fused, free corona lobes suberect (in sicco), deltate, adaxially channelled and apically pointed and notched (retuse), 2–2.3 × 1.5–2 mm; gynostegium stipitate, 2.8–3.7 × 3–4 mm, stipe c. 0.7 mm long; anthers narrowly trapezoidal, c. 2.5 × 1.75 mm, fertile part of anthers c. 1/2 as long as guide rails, abaxially almost flat, anther appendages broadly deltate, c. 0.7 × 0.8 mm, suberect, translucent, guide rails straight, slightly protruding, to 2.7 mm long; style head flattened, c. 1.5 mm in diam., constricted below a salver-shaped apex c. 0.5 mm in diam. Pollinarium: corpusculum broadly obovoid, 0.33–0.4 × 0.24–0.25 mm; caudicles flattened bone-shaped, 0.11–0.17 mm long, spreading; pollinia flattened ellipsoid, 0.40–0.5 × 0.20–0.26 mm, subapically attached to caudicles. Follicles solitary, drooping, reddish brown, straight fusiform, long beaked, 110–120 × 0.7–0.8 mm, glabrous; seeds not seen.</p><p>Phenology — The single gathering documented was found flowering and fruiting in February.</p><p>Distribution and ecology — Scyphostelma solomonii is known from only one locality in the Bolivian Andes at around 3200 m altitude. It was recorded in dense, lowgrowing (3–5 m tall) cloud forest, together with species of Barnadesia Mutis ex L. f., Chusquea Kunth, Myrsine L. and Solanum L.</p><p>Etymology — The specific epithet refers to the collector of the type specimen, James C. Solomon, MO senior botanist, collector and collaborator (for Cactaceae and Vitaceae) in the “Flora of Bolivia ” project.</p><p>Remarks — Only three narrow leaves, better described as leaf scales, were found to be present in the holotype. In contrast to Orthosia, where reduced foliage is regularly observed, the new species represents the first Scyphostelma with foliage so strongly reduced in size and number. The large, rotate flowers seated on filiform pedicels and the large and solid pollinaria immediately mark S. solomonii as a member of the S. harlingii group. These features are particularly reminiscent of S. bolivianum . However, the flowers are larger and the corolla pubescent in S. solomonii (vs glabrous in S. bolivianum); above all, gynostegial and coronal structures are so different in the two taxa that a treatment within a single species is impossible. The staminal corona is deltate, adaxially channelled and apically pointed and notched (retuse) in S. solomonii, whereas those of S. bolivianum are rounded rectangular, flat and plain. Moreover, the gynostegium is as long as wide in S. solomonii, the anther wings (guide rails) c. 2 mm long, straight and slightly protruding, whereas in S. bolivianum the gynostegium is wider than long, with guide rails c. 1.3 mm long, slightly convex and curved inward. Below each guide rail, deeply sunken in the filament tube, S. solomonii has a distinct nectarial orifice, which is absent in S. bolivianum . The massive and stout pollinaria of S. solomonii are remarkable (Fig. 10E); no other species in Scyphostelma has larger pollinaria. Ripe follicles are rarely documented on herbarium specimens, especially within the S. harlingii group. The holotype of S. solomonii represents a lucky exception, because it possesses solitary follicles that are drooping, fusiform and exceptionally large (to 12 cm long). These fruits are more than twice as long as those typically found in Scyphostelma (cf. Fig. 14A).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BE6020FFB9FF8AEBBA008CFEE2C60F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

In addition, S. pichinchense is entirely glabrous, whereas S. jaramilloi and S. sodiroi bear trichomes both along the stem and on the leaves. Morillo (1995: 23) differentiated S. jaramilloi from S. sodiroi by its larger leaves, longer pedicels, larger gynostegium and corona lobes slightly shorter than the gynostegium (vs slightly longer than the gynostegium in S. sodiroi).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BE6020FFA7FF96EBBA05ECFE28C22F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, the present molecular analysis shows that the species is a member of Scyphostelma (Appendix S2, S3), in which all the above characters can occur but are not combined in any other species. Therefore, the transfer of this species, which is endemic to central Ecuador (Chimborazo, Pichincha, Tungurahua), to Scyphostelma is carried out here.

The isotype in F consists of a single short shoot only (“kleptotype”) together with a photograph of the destroyed holotype in B.</p><p>Remarks — The affinities of Scyphostelma stenospira are unclear. The species shares narrowly linear leaves with S. purpurascens and S. quitense, but its leaf texture is much more membranous than in those species. The corona is reminiscent of S. fasciculiflorum (Fig. 11) and S. purpurascens with staminal lobes broadly rectangular in the basal half but then suddenly shouldered and terminating in a longer tooth.</p><p>This species was not included in the phylogenetic analysis.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BE6020FFA4FF96E81D01CCFCE8C4CF	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

H. Rusby 1044 (NY01288243!) . – Fig. 14, Appendix S2, S3.</p><p>Nomenclatural note — Of the syntypes cited in the protologue, Rusby 2518 (NY01288245!, NY01288246!) and Rusby 1044 (NY01288243!, NY01288244!), one specimen bears a pollinarium drawing, and the printed description by Britton, and is therefore selected here as the lectotype of Vincetoxicum unguiculatum . Markgraf’s (in Pilger 1933: 788) citing “ Peru: Ruiz et Pavon” on publishing Cynanchum unguiculatum can be considered an indirect reference to Britton’s (in Rusby 1898: 499) “ Vincetoxicum unguiculatum (R. &amp; P.) Britton” (cf. Turland &amp; al. 2018: Art. 41 Ex. 3 and 7). The Peruvian specimens of Ruiz and Pavón to which Markgraf (1933) was referring, H. Ruiz &amp; J. A. Pavón 5/80 (F V0040239F digital image!, MA814543!, MA814544!, MO-2290015!), conform to the concept of S. unguiculatum .</p><p>Remarks — Scyphostelma unguiculatum is one of the most frequent species of Scyphostelma around La Paz. It is multi-leaved with fairly stout stems covered by an obvious hispid to tomentose indumentum; the flowers are medium-sized (c. 5 mm in diam.), the corolla whitish and tomentose and the bowl-shaped corona whitish to rose-coloured; the follicles are puberulent to pubescent (Fig. 14).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BE6020FFA4FF90E81D056CFF62C20F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
