          Abstract

          Se describe e ilustra una especie nueva de Solanum de la sierra de Cacoma, una región florística poco explorada y conocida del occidente de México. Solanum edmundoi , por su hábito escandente, aguijones en tallos y hojas, indumento de pelos simples septados y anteras ligeramente atenuadas, encontraría acomodo en la sección Aculeigerum. Se diferencia de las especies cercanamente relacionadas, por el tipo y la consistencia de las hojas, el color de las flores, estambres de igual tamaño, cortedad de los filamentos y el color de los frutos. Se proporciona una clave para separarla de las especies más relacionadas con ella.

          Translated abstract

          A new species of Solanum from Sierra de Cacoma, a little known and explored floristic region in Western Mexico, is described and illustrated. Solanum edmundoi should be placed in section Aculeigerum , on account of its scandent habit, recurved prickles on stems and leaves, and indument with septate simple hairs and slightly attenuated anthers. It differs from related species by the type and consistency of the leaves, the color of the flowers, stamens of equal size, short filaments and color of the fruits. A key is provided to separate it from its closest relatives.

              Four New Vining Species of Solanum (Dulcamaroid Clade) from Montane Habitats in Tropical America

              Background Solanum (Solanaceae), with approximately 1500 species, is one of the largest genera of flowering plants, and has a centre of diversity in the New World tropics. The genus is divided into 13 major clades, of which two, the Dulcamaroid clade and the “African Non-Spiny” clade, exhibit vine morphology with twining petioles. I am currently preparing a worldwide monograph of these two groups, comprising some 70 species. Methods I formally describe here four new species of Solanum from montane Mexico and South America all belonging to the Dulcamaroid clade (including the traditionally recognised section Jasminosolanum Bitter). Descriptions, discussions of closely related species and preliminary conservation assessments are provided for all species; all species are illustrated. This paper is also a test case for the electronic publication of new names in flowering plants. Conclusions These new species are all relatively rare, but not currently of conservation concern. Solanum aspersum sp. nov. is distributed in Colombia and Ecuador, S. luculentum sp. nov. in Colombia and Venezuela, S. sanchez-vegae sp. nov. is endemic to northern Peru and S. sousae sp. nov. to southern Mexico. Solanum luculentum has the morphology of a dioecious species; this is the first report of this breeding system in the Dulcamaroid clade.
