Habitat and Distribution��� Solanum trifolium is endemic to Ecuador and is only known from the western slopes of the Andes in Bol��var Province; 2,600 ���3,000 m in elevation (Fig. 9). Phenology��� Flowering specimens have been collected in Feb., May, and Sept. to Nov. Fruiting specimens have been collected in Feb. Conservation Status��� According to the IUCN red list categories (IUCN 2010), S. trifolium is classified as D2 (vulnerable). The nine known collections of this species are from two to three closely clustered localities within a narrow elevational band (2,500 ���3,000 m) between San Jos�� de Chimbo and Chillanes, Bol��var Province, Ecuador. Solanum trifolium appears to be well suited to the disturbed habitats in the area, and has been collected in disturbed forest fragments, along roadsides, and in cow pastures. Nevertheless, it seems prudent to list it as vulnerable, because of the extremely narrow distribution of this species. Etymology��� The epithet trifolium refers to the 3-foliate compound leaves, and their striking similarity in size and shape to the leaves of some species in the genus Trifolium L. (Fabaceae). Notes��� Solanum trifolium , a ground-trailing species, is the only species in sect. Herpystichum with compound leaves and rotate flowers. The other two species with compound leaves, S. pentaphyllum and S. phaseoloides, both have stellate flowers, and the only other species with rotate or rotate-stellate flowers is S. dalibardiforme, which has simple leaves. Dunal���s (1852) protologue lists a specimen in ���h. Lambert et Boiss.���, and the Boissier herbarium is now held at G. A specimen at G-BOIS is labeled ��� Solanum trifolium Dun.! in DC Prodr.��� in Dunal���s hand, and this is interpreted as the holotype. Apresumed duplicate of this collection exists at MA, but does not have Dunal���s annotation. It is interpreted as an isotype. Both specimens have ���Fl. H. no. 449��� on the labels, which has been interpreted by some as a collection number; however, the number refers to description No. 449 in a manuscript by J. A. Manzanilla (of S. ternatum, the original determination of Ruiz and Pav��n���s collection), which has only recently been published in Tafalla���s Flora Huayaquilensis (Tafalla and Estrella 1989). Another possible isotype exists at G. This sterile specimen was found in the DC herbarium, but with no associated collection information. Additional Specimens Examined��� ECUADOR.
