Abstract

A new species, Brymela antioquiana S.P. Churchill & J.J. Atwood, is described and illustrated from Colombia. The new species is superficially similar to B. parkeriana (Hook. & Grev.) W.R. Buck – a species from northern Amazonia, the Guianas and Lesser Antilles – in its weakly complanate habit and straight, oblong-lanceolate leaves. Brymela antioquiana differs from B. parkeriana in having: longer leaves (3.6–4.0 versus 2.1–3.2 mm); long-acuminate versus obtuse to acute leaf apices; more strongly undulate upper laminae; and entire to weakly serrulate leaf margins with simple teeth versus serrulate to moderately serrate leaf margins with occasionally bifid teeth. A key to the 13 species of Brymela is provided.
