Abstract

The diversity of Cranichis in Bolivia is evaluated. An updated key for identifying species is provided. Morphological characteristics of 15 species of Bolivian Cranichis are presented together with illustrations of their floral segments. The occurrence of C.diphylla, C.lehmannii, and C.muscosa in this country was not confirmed. In our opinion the previously published Bolivian record for C.polyantha is doubtful. For the first time, C.badia and C.longipetiolata are reported in this country. Two new species of Cranichis are described.

Keywords: Cranichidinae; diversity; new species; taxonomy.
