RT Journal Article T1 Novelties in Lindsaea Dryand. ex Sm. (Lindsaeaceae) from South America T2 Novedades en Lindsaea Dryand. ex Sm. (Lindsaeaceae) para Suramérica A1 Rojas-Alvarado, Alexander Francisco K1 Helechos AB In this paper three new species of Lindsaea Dryand. ex Sm. are described andillustrated from South America: falcatosora A. Rojas, L. nana A. Rojas and L.trapezoidalis A. Rojas. The first species differ from L. pleioptera Kramer by itsfalcate pinnae (in 1-pinnate fronds) or pinnules (in 2-pinnate fronds) with falcatesori restricted to 2/3 basal, or absent in 1/3 apical where the blade is dentate.The second species differ from L. falcata Dryand. by its smaller blades (4.5–8 ×1.7–2.6 cm vs. 10–25 × 4–7.5 cm), pinnae perpendicular to slightly ascending(vs. falcate) and apical segment subconform (vs. conform), deltate (vs. hastate).The third species differ from L. taeniata Kramer by its angulate (vs. terete) stipeand rachises and proportionally shorter (2-3.5 times longer than wide vs. atleast 5 times longer than wide) pinnules. Also three varietals are combined asspecies. PB Universidad de Málaga.
