Supplementary notes on the American species of Erythrina. V

Abstract

Abundant new collections, as well as old collections which had not been seen by me previously but have become available since then, are cited in this paper. These extend our knowledge of certain species previously known from incomplete material. Extensions of ranges are noted for many species: one, E. elenae , which was described as new since 1943, is reviewed; one new species, E. oliviae , is described; and three, S. occidentalis , E. panamens is and E. colombiana, are now placed in synonymy.
