Type:— ECUADOR. Esmeraldas: Quinindé, Bilsa Biological Station, Montañas de Mache, 35 km W of Quinindé, 5 km W of Santa Isabel , road between the station and the SE Ridge Trail, 00º21`N, 79º44`W, 400‒600 m, 19 Sep 1994 (fl, fr), M. Bass & N. Pittman 22 (holotype: OSH! [OSH-v-0000033]; isotypes: MO! [MO-277264], QCNE! [QCNE133]). Figs. 23 View FIGURE 23 , 24K–N View FIGURE 24 .
Scandent herbs or shrubs, terrestrial or occasionally epiphytic, up to 1 m tall. Stem puberulous when young, later glabrescent. Petiole 0.3–1.0 cm long, puberulous to glabrescent; blade narrowly elliptic to narrowly oblong, 8.0–12.5 × 2–5 cm, glabrous above, glabrous or scarcely puberulous along the midvein beneath, base cuneate to rarely rounded, usually asymmetric, apex acuminate to caudate, margin subentire to slightly toothed, with 12 to 14 marginal to slightly extramarginal hydathodes per side (one or two per centimeter), secondary veins 12 to 15 per side, intramarginal vein present, discontinuous. Subtending leaves not reduced. Peduncle 7–13 cm long, glabrescent to scarcely puberulous, ebracteolate. Hypanthium narrowly obconic, 6–11 mm × 3.5–5.5 mm, glabrescent to scarcely puberulous. Calyx lobes linear, 12–20(–30) × 1.0– 2.5 mm, reflexed to patent, glabrescent to scarcely puberulous, basally spaced by sinuses up to 1.2 mm wide, margin slightly toothed with 3 or 4 teeth per side, apex acute to acuminate. Corolla green suffused with brown or purple, glabrous; tube 1.1–1.3 cm long, 2.0– 2.5 mm at its mid- and distal portions, inflated proximally; lobes ovate, falcate, not curled back at late anthesis, apex acuminate; dorsal lobes 12–16 × 2.3–4.0 mm, lateral lobes 7–13 × 2–3 mm, ventral lobe 6.5–10.0 × 2.2–3.5 mm. Synandrium 2.3–2.8 cm long, exserted up to 1.5 cm; filament tube 2.0– 2.1 cm long, glabrous; anther tube 3–7 mm, glabrous, ventral anthers ebarbate throughout. Berries obconic, 1.0–1.5 × 0.5–1 cm, not inflated, scarcely puberulous, whitish to purple.
Phenology: — Burmeistera smaragdi sets flowers and fruits in January, March to September, November and December.
Distribution, ecology and conservation status: — Burmeistera smaragdi , originally described from Ecuador, reaches Colombia, where it grows in the Andes of Cauca and Nariño, at elevations between 400 and 2160 m. Following the IUCN (2022) Guidelines, this species qualifies for the Near Threatened (NT) category.
Notes: — Burmeistera smaragdi is similar to B. serraniaguae and B. succulenta , from which it differs by the young stem puberulous, the petiole, peduncle and calyx lobes puberulous to glabrescent, the corolla lobes not curled back at anthesis, and the synandrium exserted up to 1.5 cm (versus the young stem glabrous, the petiole, peduncle and calyx lobes glabrous, the corolla lobes curled back at anthesis, and the synandrium exserted up to 1.8–2.4 cm in the remaining two species).
