Tachigali inca (Caesalpinioideae – Leguminosae), a new species of giant tree from Amazonian forests

Abstract: The new species Tachigali inca is described and illustrated. It grows in lowland ‘terra firme’ forest of Amazonian Brazil, in the sub-Andean Amazon region of Peru, and in northeastern Bolivia. The species differs markedly from its most closely related species (T. amarumayu, T. prancei and T. setifera, all belonging to the “setifera group”), by the large cylindrical domatia on the leaf rachis, and by the brown-orange pulverulent indumentum on the abaxial surface of the leaflets and the young twigs; on older bra… Show more

“…Not only have the relationships amongst Sclerolobieae genera now been strongly resolved for almost all nodes (Fig. 78 ), but also their monophyly is strongly supported by morphological characters and more densely sampled phylogenies based on a few plastid and nuclear loci ( Haston et al 2003 , 2005 ; Bruneau et al 2008 ; Chomicki et al 2015 ; Huamantupa-Chuquimaco 2020 ). The tribe is not defined by obvious synapomorphies, although there is a tendency for the occurrence of unusually divided or foliaceous stipules (except for Diptychandra ).…”

“…The South American species occur mainly in the Amazon region, extending to the Brazilian Atlantic coastal rainforests. The greatest diversity is concentrated in the Amazon rainforest with 60 species, but other biomes such as the savannas of central/north-east Brazil and the Atlantic rainforests in southern Brazil also have high levels of richness and endemism ( Dwyer 1954 , 1957 ; van der Werff 2008; Silva et al 2016 ; Huamantupa-Chuquimaco et al 2020 ). Many Amazonian forest Tachigali species are ant-housing plants, which have important biotic interactions with big-eyed arboreal ants ( Pseudomyrmecinae ) ( Ducke 1949 ; Dwyer 1954 ).…”

“…El trabajo de herbario se complementó con la consulta en línea de los herbarios MO y el NY. También, se incluyeron como referencia los trabajos en Tachigali realizados por Dwyer (1954Dwyer ( , 1957; van der Werff (2008) y Huamantupa-Chuquimaco et al (2020). La revisión de las especies para Madre de Dios formo parte de una revisión taxonómica del género para el neotrópico (Huamantupa et al, en prensa).…”

“…De estas, aproximadamente el 70% habitan principalmente los bosques Amazónicos, un 20% los bosques de la Mata Atlántica, y el restante en el Cerrado brasilero y los bosques Andino-Amazónicos de las estribaciones andinas (Dwyer, 1954(Dwyer, , 1957van der Werff, 2008;Silva et al, 2016;Huamantupa Chuquimaco et al, 2021). Para el Perú se reconocen 30 especies, de las cuales más del 50% habitan el bosque húmedo Amazónico y los otros en los bosques estacionalmente secos y bosques Amazónicos de la base de los Andes (Huamantupa-Chuquimaco et al, 2020). Sin embargo, estudios más regionales y locales aún son escasos y son de prioridad.…”
