13B
), terminally placed in a cyme, 1.8-4 cm diameter, sepals with marked palmate veins, fully separated or fused at the base, sometimes one or two reduced or even absent, pistils very rudimentary, pedicel 1-3.5 cm long;
flower pedicel of reduced flowers
1-2 mm long in functionally male flowers, 1-5 mm long in functionally female flowers,
receptacle
semiglobose in functionally male flowers, broadly semiglobose in functionally female flowers,
ovary
inferior,
calyx lobes
4, triangular, translucid, 0.2-0.5 mm long, 0.6-1 mm broad,
petals
4, adaxially red, abaxially purple with white margin, valvate, cucullate with a small mucron at the apex, coriaceous, 1.5-3 mm long, 1-1.5 mm broad;
functionally male flowers
(Fig.
13C
): hypanthium 1.5-2 mm diameter, 1.5 mm high, stamens 8, well-developed, filaments 1.2-2 mm long, anthers 1-1.5 mm long, 0.5-1 mm broad, purple, pistils 2, very reduced, 0.5 mm long, stigmas not penicellate;
functionally female flowers
(Fig.
13D
): hypanthium 1.2-2.2 mm diameter, 1.5 mm high, stamens 8, very reduced, filaments 0.2-0.5 mm long, anthers 0.2-0.4 mm long, 0.1-0.2 mm broad, pistils 2(-3), 1.5-2 mm long, broad at the base, narrower in the middle and broadening towards the apex, enlarging up to 3.2 mm during fruit maturation, stigmas apically clavate and shortly penicellate, 0.5 mm long;
fruit
a semiglobose capsule, apically with a conspicuous border, dark reddish brown, 2.5 mm high, 4-4.5 mm broad above, 3-4 mm diameter, the part around the pistils thickening upwards up to 1 mm during fruit maturation, opening between the two pistils to release seeds, seeds not seen.

Distribution.
Hydrangea trianae
is a widespread species occurring in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru (Fig.
14
).
Figure 14.
Distribution of
Hydrangea trianae
and
Hydrangea weberbaueri
.
Habitat.
Hydrangea trianae
is known from cloud forest and remnants of this vegetation type at elevation between 400-3680 m. Moreover, it has been noted to occur in disturbed or late secondary forests.
Phenology.
This species has been collected with flowers and fruits throughout the year.
Notes.
Hydrangea trianae
should not be considered a synonym of
H. peruviana
, from which it can be distinguished by the notoriously coriaceous leaves, the abaxial reticulate network of secondary and tertiary veins connecting the primary ones, and the abaxial white pubescence.
Hydrangea lehmannii
was synonymized with
H. peruviana
by
McClintock (1957)
, whereas she considered
H. platyphylla
as a synonym of
H. oerstedii
.
With respect to the type material of
Hydrangea lehmannii
,
McClintock (1957)
cited the K material as an isotype, albeit without designating a specific sheet, and this was also cited by
Freire-Fierro (2004)
.
With respect to the type material of
H. platyphylla
,
McClintock (1957)
cited G material as holotype, which effectively lectotypified the name. However, there are two specimens of this collection in G, therefore requiring second-step lectotypification, which is done here.
One of the F specimens (V0066626F), which supposedly is an isotype of
H. platyphylla
, does not belong to this species based on leaf venation, probably due to a labeling error; however, it is not possible to propose any other identification as the material is very limited.
Briquet (1919)
distinguished
H. trianae
and
H. platyphylla
based on leaf shape and venation, as well as size of cymes, sepals of enlarged marginal flowers and styles, which can be contributed to the sex of the single collections of both species he used for his descriptions, the specimens of
H. trianae
being functionally female and the ones of
H. platyphylla
which are functionally male.
The specimen of
Triana 4668
in NY does not correspond with
H. trianae
or any of the other species treated here, in contrast with the specimen with the same number in COL.
Triana's
numbers do not correspond to field collection numbers as currently used, but instead are generic numbers based on the Endlicher system (
Kirkbride 1982
;
Aymard 2017
).
According to our molecular study,
Hydrangea trianae
is closely related to
H. goudotii
(Granados Mendoza et al. unpublished results).
Preliminary conservation status.
Although this species has an EOO of nearly 726,300 km2, it is Endangered (B2abiii) according to the IUCN categories and criteria (
IUCN 2012
), with an AOO of 372 km2, as well as an extensive reduction in both EOO and AOO as a consequence of habitat destruction and fragmentation.
