Abstract

Prestonia succo, a new species from Peru, is described and illustrated, and its relationships with other taxa are discussed. It is similar to P. quinquangularis but differs by its smaller leaf blades and shorter corolla tube, the latter lacking free corona lobes within. A key to the species of Prestonia in Peru is included.
