Abstract: | Summary
Calathea dryadica and Calathea reginae are described, circumscribed and illustrated. These new species are probably endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Rio de Janeiro
State in Southeast Brazil and are considered critically endangered because of the restricted geographic area of occurrence,
sometimes enclosed by densely urbanised areas. |
