Abstract

Preparation of a new account of the flora of the Bahamas by Dr. Donovan S. Correll of Fairchild Tropical Garden has led to recent intensive collections from those islands by Dr. Correll. The new taxon described below represents the first record of this large and interesting genus from these islands. While known from a number of other Caribbean islands, Matelea is nowhere as abundant nor diverse as in the tropical areas of the mainland land mass of North and South America.
