Abstract

Calandrinia jompomae Hershk. is described as a distinct species of C. sect. Calandrinia from south-central Chile. The species was described by Barnéoud, but he erroneously identified it as C. glauca Schrad. ex DC. Calandrinia jompomae is similar to C. bonariensis Hauman endemic to Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, here recognized as distinct from C. ciliata (Ruiz & Pavon) DC. But the habitat/ecology of C. bonariensis is distinct, rendering prudent the recognition of C. jompomae pending genetic analysis. Calandrinia jompomae also is morphologically similar to an unidentified annual calandrinia from the Falkland Islands. Calandrinia jompomae is another example of a species easily distinguished and historically well-collected, yet overlooked in the taxonomy of the Chilean flora.
