Tovomita nebulosa (Clusiaceae), a new species from Cerro de la Neblina, Venezuela

ABSTRACT Although the number of recently described Tovomita species is relatively high, much more remains to be done, given that each new survey of representative Amazonian collections reveals many potentially undescribed taxa. In the treatment for Tovomita published in Flora of the Venezuelan Guayana, at least six distinct morphotypes did not match any previously described species. Here we recognize morphotype “D” as a new endemic species from Cerro de la Neblina. Additionally, we provide an identification key to the Tovomita species in Venezuela.摘要 尽管近年来已发表的梭果榄属（Tovomita）物种数量相对较多，但鉴于针对具有代表性的亚马孙地区馆藏标本开展的每一次新调查均能发现大量潜在未被描述的分类单元，因此仍有大量分类学工作有待完成。在发表于《委内瑞拉圭亚那植物志》的梭果榄属分类处理研究中，至少有6个独特的形态型无法匹配任何已正式描述的物种。本研究将形态型"D"确立为产自内布利纳峰的全新特有物种。此外，本研究还编制了委内瑞拉境内梭果榄属物种的分类检索表。
