Souto &amp; Agra, sp. nov. (Fig. 1)</p><p>Diagnostic characters: Senna hatschbachii is morphologically similar to Senna multijuga var. lindleyana, but can be distinguished by having linear stipules (≤ 0.1 mm wide), a subulate extrafloral nectary, and leaves with 6–13 pairs of leaflets. In contrast, Senna multijuga var. lindleyana features setiform stipules 0.2–0.4 mm wide, ovoid to narrow ovoid extrafloral nectaries, and leaves with 15–46 pairs of leaflets.</p><p>Type: — BRAZIL.

(FUEL! 33830, RB 393318) .</p><p>Distribution and habitat: — Senna hatschbachii is endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Its distribution is restricted to Semideciduous Seasonal Forest sites in northern Paraná State (Fig. 2), typically along forest borders, roadsides, and near the edges of riparian forests. Despite its proximity to São Paulo State, no specimens of S. hatschbachii were encountered in São Paulo State.</p><p>Phenology: —Flowering specimens have been observed in March and April, with fruiting specimens in April and May.</p><p>Etymology: —The epithet “ hatschbachii ” is a tribute to the botanist Gerdt Guenther Hatschbach (1923–2013) who dedicated a large part of his life to scientific research and founded the Municipal Botanical Museum of Curitiba, Paraná State, to which he donated more than 18,000 exsiccates from his private collection.</p><p>Preliminary conservation status: — Senna hatschbachii is assessed as Endangered (EN) under IUCN Red List criteria B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii) (IUCN 2022). Its extent of occurrence (EOO) is estimated to be 3732 km 2, and its area of occupancy (AOO) to be 32 km 2, both statistics meeting thresholds for an Endangered (EN) classification. The species is known only from eight Atlantic Forest biome collections made in northern Paraná State, Brazil.</p><p>The Atlantic Forest is considered one of 34 global biodiversity hotspots, but it is now fragmented along the Brazilian coast and retains only about 29% of its original forest coverage (Myers et al. 2000, RAD 2024). The Paraná State ranked third in Brazil in terms of Atlantic Forest deforestation in 2022, with 2883 hectares lost to illegal logging and other anthropic activities (SOS Mata Atlântica 2022). However, in 2023, deforestation of the Atlantic Forest in Paraná State decreased by approximately 70% compared to 2022 (RAD 2024).</p><p>Among the known sites of occurrence of Senna hatschbachii, only one is located within a legally protected area: the Mata dos Godoy State Park, which encompasses 690 hectares (IAP 2002). Given the species’ limited distribution, habitat fragmentation, and ongoing deforestation, S. hatschbachii is considered Endangered (EN) based on IUCN criteria.</p><p>Vernacular names: —“pau-de-pito” (O.C. Pavão et al. s.n., RB 393318) and “pau-cigarra” (O.M. Gonçalves et al., CEN 69729).</p><p>Taxonomic comments: — Senna hatschbachii exhibits morphological features that align it with Senna sect. Peiranisia ser. Interglandulosae, including leaves with an extrafloral nectary positioned on the leaf rachis between the first pair of leaflets; flowers characterized by strongly asymmetrical corollas; poricidal anthers on three abaxial stamens that converge distally into a tubular tip; and flat-compressed legumes. The species closely resembles Senna multijuga var. lindleyana and has been misidentified as such in herbarium collections. S hatschbachii can be distinguished, however, by having linear stipules (≤ 0.1 mm wide), a subulate extrafloral nectary between the first pair of leaflets, and leaves with 6–13 pairs of leaflets. Senna multijuga var. lindleyana, on the other hand, has setiform stipules (0.2–0.4 mm wide), an ovoid to narrow-ovoid extrafloral nectary located between the first pair of leaflets (and occasionally between subsequent pairs), and leaves with 15–46 pairs of leaflets. A list of comparative morphological traits of these taxa is presented in Table 2.</p><p>Identification Key: —We provide a key for identifying tree taxa of Senna ser. Interglandulosae in Brazil based on morphological characteristics. This key may aid in identifying previously unidentified or misidentified specimens in Brazilian herbaria and support taxonomic studies of Senna .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/78259979802BFFA3FF454BFBBF72FCAE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
