Popis: Sisyrinchium iguazuanum C.D.Inácio, L.Eggers & Chauveau, sp. nov. (Figs. 6 and 7) Diagnosis:— Sisyrinchium iguazuanum resembles S. marchioides by the yellow, proximally white perigon; however, it is distinguished by the smaller lower valve of the spathes (8.8–15.3 × 0.7–1.8 mm vs. 15.6–27.1 × 2.2–3.3 mm), shorter upper valve (7.8–14.2 mm vs. 17.1–24.4 mm long), smaller flowers (10–12.2 mm vs. 15–20.3 mm in diam.) and pedicels shorter than spathes (vs. moderately exserted). Type:— BRAZIL. Paraná: Abelardo Luz, BR 280, aprox. km 153 (23 km da cidade de Palmas), 988 m, 19 November 2010, L . Eggers & T. T. Souza-Chies 612 (holotype ICN!, isotypes MBM!) Perennial herb, caespitose to rhizomatous 11–29.5 cm tall. Rhizome short to long, roots fibrous and slightly thickened. Basal leaves absent. Cauline leaves, 3−7, plane, falcate, 11−20(–25.8) × 1.6–2 mm, glabrous, attenuate, margin entire, sheath 3.6−6.5 mm long, margin entire. Angle between leaves and stem 12−17 degrees. Stem narrowly winged, 15−28.5 × 0.09−0.19 cm, internodes 19−32 mm long. Inflorescence terminal. Rhipidium 1−2-flowered, pedunculate, peduncle 11.1−25 mm long. Spathes bivalved, lower valve 8.8−15.3 × 0.7−1.8 mm, upper 7.8−14.2 × 1.1−1.7 mm, glabrous, acute to acuminate, membranaceous margin only on upper valve. Pedicel shorter than spathes, 6.9−14 mm long, glabrous. Perigon disk-shaped, yellow, proximally white, followed by a brown to vinaceous coloured ring, 10−12.2 mm in diam. (measurements from spirit-preserved and dry preserved flowers). Tepals subequal, 5.2−6.2 × 2−2.3 mm, free, oblanceolate, attenuate, concolorous, glabrous. Filaments yellow, basally connate for 0.5−0.7 mm, then 1.5−1.7 mm free, ascending to patent, glabrous. Anthers yellow, versatile, 3.5 mm long. Ovary obovoid, 1.3−1.7 × 1−1.1 mm, glabrous. Style yellow, 0.9−1.5 mm long, style branches 2−2.4 mm long, alternate to the stamens, ascending to patent. Capsule globose to subglobose, 3.1−4.9 × 2.8−4.7 mm, dark brown, glabrous. Seeds not seen. Distribution and Habitat:— Sisyrinchium iguazuanum occurs in west of the states of Paraná and Santa Catarina, in the Plateau of the Paraná basin, in the Atlantic Forest biome, Brazil (Fig. 3). It was also collected in eastern Misiones, Argentina. The species grows in dry to humid grasslands, bogs, thin soil associated with rock outcrops, and roadsides, at an elevation range of 800–1000 m. Phenology: —Flowering and fruiting from September to February. Conservation Status: —Near Threatened (NT) according to the IUCN Red List guidelines (IUCN 2019).Although the taxon meets the area requirements under criterion B for threatened (EOO Reserva Indígena de Mangueirinha, Paraná). Etymology: —The specific epithet refers to the distribution of the species that is generally associated to the Iguaçu river basin. Paratypes: — BRAZIL.

Taxonomic relationships: —Specimens of S. iguazuanum were identified as S. vaginatum in herbaria. They have similarities, but can be differentiated mainly by the cauline leaf width, sheath margin and androecium measurements (Table 1). The most similar species of S. iguazuanum is S. marchioides Ravenna (2002: 22), from which it can be distinguished by the smaller lower valve of the spathes (8.8–15.3 × 0.7–1.8 mm vs. 15.6–27.1 × 2.2–3.3 mm), shorter upper valve (7.8–14.2 mm vs. 17.1–24.4 mm long), shorter pedicel (6.9–14 mm vs. 18–30 mm long), smaller flower (10–12.2 mm vs. 15–20.3 mm in diam.) and tepal size (5.2–6.2 × 2–2.3 mm vs. 7.5–11 × 3.2–5.7 mm) (Table 1). Another species superficially similar to S. iguazuanum is S. scalarium Ravenna (2002: 26), described from Chaco and Corrientes (Argentina), and never recorded in Brazil. They present overlapping measurements such as plant height, stem width and spathes length, but S. scalarium has usually longer and wider leaves (23–45 mm × 2–4.5 mm vs. 11– 20(–25.8) × 1.6–2 mm). A more precise comparison between these two species has not been possible due to the lack of details in the original description of S. scalarium, coupled by the fact that its types and paratypes are unavailable.
