Calliandra hispidulocarpa (Fabaceae), a new species from Jalisco, Mexico, with an amended description of C. longipedicellata

Abstract We describe Calliandra hispidulocarpa (Fabaceae), a new species from the Sierra de Manantlán, southwestern Jalisco, Mexico. Specimens of the new species had been confused with the allopatric C. longipedicellata , a hypothetically closely related species restricted to a contiguous mountain range. The morphological differences between the two species are discussed and their geographical distribution is mapped.
