摘要
Besleria iara, a new species from the western Amazon lowland rainforest in Brazil and Peru, is described and illustrated. Data are provided on the species’ ecology, distribution, and conservation status. This species is a shrub, with hirsute indumentum covering almost the whole plant, orange calyx, and yellow tubular-ventricose corolla. It was found growing in the understory of humid terra firme forest, along the margin of small streams.
