Taxonomic notes: — Sida lonchitis is distinguished from other species of section Sidae ( Table 1 View TABLE 1 ) by the flowers arranged in glomerules and by the presence of bifid bracts ( Figures 4K–Q View FIGURE 4 , 14I View FIGURE 14 ) ( Krapovickas 2007a, Yoshikawa et al. 2019).

Distribution, habitat and conservation status: —The species occurs in southeast, south, and “Distrito Federal” of Brazil ( Bovini 2020). The species is mentioned to Argentina by Krapovickas (2007), but without a voucher. In State of Rio Grande do Sul S. lonchitis was recorded only in Tropical Forest ( Figure 2 View FIGURE 2 ), in edges or ruderal environments. With the available records, the species presents an EOO of 1,030,158.204 Km² and an AOO of 120 Km². Although it can be considered EN by the AOO, conditions B(a), B(b) and B(c) were not met. Thus, the species is here considered Least Concern (LC).
