Abstract

Two new Rogiera species have been detected in the collections of the Andayu group of Oaxaca (R. oaxacensis) and of the State University of Tabasco (R. tabascensis). Both species are notable because of their pending, creeping, liana-like habit growing on calcareous rocks, which is a rare geological formation in the mountainous systems of México formed mostly by old crystalline cordilleras and young volcanic ridges. Up to now only one species of Rogiera, the R. subscandens from Chiapas and Guatemala has been known of this life-form.
