A new species from the wet miombo woodlands of Tanzania and Angola, Veranso-Libalah & G.Kadereit, . (Melastomataceae, Melastomateae), is described and illustrated. Although the widespread also occurs in Tanzania and northeastern Angola, is morphologically most similar to known only from the Northwest of Cameroon, but differs by its indumentum of glandular trichomes on the entire plant (versus a mixture of stellate and glandular trichomes in other species of ), leaf-blades with serrulate margins (versus entire margins in ) and lateral nerves that become faint mid-way and never reach the leaf apex (versus conspicuous lateral nerves percurrent from the base to the apex in ). A preliminary conservation status of Endangered (EN) is proposed for following the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria. A taxonomic key and distribution map of all species is also included.
描述并图示了一种来自坦桑尼亚和安哥拉湿润的米欧波林地的新物种,Veranso-Libalah & G.Kadereit,(野牡丹科,野牡丹族)。尽管分布广泛的[某物种]也出现在坦桑尼亚和安哥拉东北部,但[新物种]在形态上与仅在喀麦隆西北部已知的[另一物种]最为相似,不过其区别在于全株具腺毛(与之相比,[另一物种]的其他种类具星状毛和腺毛的混合物),叶片边缘具细锯齿(与之相比,[另一物种]的边缘全缘)以及侧脉中途变模糊且从不到达叶尖(与之相比,[另一物种]的明显侧脉从基部直达叶尖)。根据世界自然保护联盟红色名录类别和标准,建议[新物种]的初步保护状况为濒危(EN)。还包括了所有[相关]物种的分类检索表和分布图。
