Figure 5D. Stenandrium glabrescens Urb., Symb. Antill. 9:131. 1923. TYPE.— CUBA. Holguín: In Sierra de Nipe ad Río Piloto, 14 Mar 1915, Ekman 5021 (lectotype, designated here: S [05-309]; isolectotypes: NY, US). DISCUSSION.— Stenandrium ekmanii is endemic to Cuba (Acevedo-Rodríguez and Strong 2015), and was erroneously reported in South America (Acevedo-Rodríguez and Strong 2012; IPNI 2013). Stenandrium glabrescens was treated as a synonym by León and Alain (1957).
