New and interesting species of Chrysobalanaceae

Abstract Four new species of Licania and two of Hirtella are described and additional notes are given on three other little known species of Chrysobalanaceae. All the new species have been collected recently since 1972 when the author monographed the neotropical Chrysobalanaceae. Three of the new species are from Amazonia, two from Panama, and one from Pacific coastal Colombia confirming that these three areas still have many undescribed species and are in need of further exploration.
