Descripció
Sumari:Bursera laurihuertae, an important tree element of the tropical deciduous forests of the southeastern part of the Mexican state of Oaxaca, is described and illustrated. The species is a member of section Bursera, but stands out because of its predominantly simple leaves. It is compared with B. schlechtendalii Engl., with B. instabilis McVaugh & Rzed., as well as with the Jamaican B. lunanii (Spreng.) Adams & Dandy, but no firm conclusion can be drawn concerning its close phylogenetic relationship.
