description | Background and Aims: The genus Anemopaegma comprises 45 Neotropical species. The most recent literature has three of them registered for Mexico. A fourth species of this genus was identified in the living plant collection of the Jardin Etnobiológico de las Selvas del Soconusco (JESS) and collected from the area surrounding the garden. There has been no confirmed record of this species for Mexico. The aim of this study was to register more collections of this species in the field, in databases and herbaria, to describe its characteristics and generate a key to identify the Anemopaegma species in Mexico.
Methods: Field trips were carried out in the area surrounding the JESS to locate wild populations of Anemopaegma. Sterile and fertile material was collected from the studied individuals and deposited in the ECO-TA-H and MEXU herbaria. Herbarium specimens of the genus Anemopaegma were reviewed in the National Herbarium of Mexico (MEXU), and databases were consulted to see records in other herbaria.
Key results: The record of the species Anemopaegma orbiculatum is confirmed for Mexico. Two young individuals were recorded in the wild as well as several seedlings, in addition to the individual from the JESS. These records support the only specimen previously collected whose data are inconsistent. The number of species from this genus in Mexico increases from three to four. An identification key was generated for the Mexican species.
Conclusions: The record of few individuals of A. orbiculatum in the field indicates that its presence in Mexico could be threatened, given that the native vegetation of Soconusco, Chiapas, has been strongly impacted. The examination of herbarium specimens provided necessary information to describe the species. |

La literatura más reciente registra tres de ellas para México. Una cuarta especie de este género fue identificada dentro de la colección de plantas vivas del Jardín Etnobiológico de las Selvas del Soconusco (JESS) y colectada en una zona aledaña al jardín. No se tenía un registro confirmado de dicha especie para México. El objetivo de este trabajo fue buscar más registros de esta especie en campo, bases de datos y herbarios, describir sus características y generar una clave de identificación para las especies de Anemopaegma en México. Métodos: Se realizaron salidas a campo en áreas aledañas al JESS para encontrar poblaciones de Anemopaegma. Se recolectó material fértil y estéril de los individuos estudiados y se depositó en los herbarios ECO-TA-H y MEXU. Además, se revisaron ejemplares de herbario del género Anemopaegma depositados en el Herbario Nacional de México (MEXU), y se consultaron bases de datos en línea para ver sus registros en otros herbarios. Resultados clave: Se confirma el registro para México de la especie Anemopaegma orbiculatum. Se localizaron dos individuos juveniles y varias plántulas, en el estado de Chiapas, adicionales al ejemplar que ya se tenía resguardado en el JESS. Todos estos registros sustentan un único ejemplar que se encontró previamente colectado cuyos datos de colecta son inconsistentes. Se incrementa el número de especies de este género en México de tres a cuatro. Se generó una clave para la identificación de las especies en México. Conclusiones: El registro de pocos individuos de A. orbiculatum en campo indica que su presencia en México pudiera estar vulnerada, ya que la vegetación nativa del Soconusco, Chiapas, ha sido fuertemente impactada. La consulta de ejemplares de herbario aportó información necesaria para describir la especie.
