| description | A morphological description of the genus Mimophytum Greenm. (Boraginaceae) is provided, as well as a dichotomous key to the species and ecological and distributional information. The genus is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Mexico. Morphological descriptions for the two species are provided. One of them, M. benitomartinezii, is proposed as new to science. It differs from M. omphalodoides in that the stems are rhizomatous-stoloniferous, the upper leaf surfaces are glabrous, the leaf blades possess 3 basal nerves, the inflorescence is an ebracteate, scorpioid cyme, the pedicels are shorter, and the fruits have glochids forming a ring around the edges. |

(Boraginaceae) Pérez-Calix, Emmanuel Patiño-Siciliano, Alfredo Boraginaceae Mexico Mimophytum taxonomy Boraginaceae México Mimophytum taxonomía A morphological description of the genus Mimophytum Greenm. (Boraginaceae) is provided, as well as a dichotomous key to the species and ecological and distributional information. The genus is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Mexico. Morphological descriptions for the two species are provided. One of them, M. benitomartinezii, is proposed as new to science. It differs from M. omphalodoides in that the stems are rhizomatous-stoloniferous, the upper leaf surfaces are glabrous, the leaf blades possess 3 basal nerves, the inflorescence is an ebracteate, scorpioid cyme, the pedicels are shorter, and the fruits have glochids forming a ring around the edges. Se presenta una descripción morfológica del género Mimophytum Greenm. (Boraginaceae), datos referentes a su distribución geográfica y ecológica y una clave dicotómica para identificar sus elementos. Asimismo, se describen las dos especies conocidas de este grupo vegetal endémico de la Sierra Madre Oriental de México; una de ellas, M. benitomartinezii se propone como nueva para la ciencia, pues difiere de M. omphalodoides en que lleva el tallo rizomatoso-estolonífero, el haz de la hoja glabro, la lámina foliar con 3 nervios basales, la inflorescencia en forma de cima escorpiodea, ebracteada, los pedicelos más cortos; además, los frutos de la nueva especie tienen los gloquidios dispuestos periféricamente.
