Eleocharis tucumanensis Barros (Cyperaceae) in central Chile, distribution extension and contribution about its knowledge

Medina, P. 2015. “Eleocharis tucumanensis Barros (Cyperaceae) in central Chile, distribution extension and contribution about its knowledge”. Lilloa 52 (2). This work adds a new location and first record of Eleocharis tucumanensis Barros in Central Chile. The survey of a high andean mountain range in the Olivares river basin (RM), expanded their southern distributional limit about 1230 km and 11.1 latitudinal degrees. This taxon was found above 3800 masl in a high andean wetland ecosystems. The finding reveals the limited information available about the chorology of this species in Chile and the gap of collections among second Region of Antofagasta and its current distribution. It arises to propose the conservation status to Chile as Data Deficient (DD)
