Loxsomopsis pearcei (Baker) Maxon, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash. View in CoL 46: 105. 1933

= Loxsomopsis notabilis Sloss., Bull. Torrey Bot. View in CoL Club 39: 285. 1912.

Range:— Costa Rica; locally from Colombia to Bolivia (CO, LP).

Ecology:— Uncommon and local; along roadsides, forest margins, and on landslides in humid forests, often among Sticherus and Hypolepis ; 1800–3600 m.

Notes:— Variable with respect to density and color of hairs on the leaves and indusia, leaf size and blade shape, and glaucous abaxial blade surfaces ( Lehnert et al. 2001). This variation is probably a result of the localized and ephemeral nature of the habitats of this species, resulting in small, short-lived populations.
