Remarks.

Following Andersson and Antonelli (2005) Ciliosemina purdieana (syn. Remijia purdieana ) is a narrow endemic, occurring in the lower section of the Magdalena River Valley in the Colombian departments of Antioquia, Bolívar, and Santander. To the synonyms of this taxon belong also Remijia involucrata , determined by J. Klotzsch (name on herbarium sheet in B, F! negative no. 165) and described over 30 years later by Schumann (1889). Because the holotype of R. involucrata was destroyed, we designated here as the lectotype the specimen collected by Warszewicz and preserved in KRA (Fig. 3 ). The remaining 12 specimens of the taxon in KRA are isolectotypes.
