Abstract
In the Brazilian states of Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo, 11 species of Lytoneuron occur, of which one is new to science, L. poseidonii. Besides the 11 species, we also recognize two varieties, of which one is new, L. columbinum var. caparaoense. We also make three new combinations: L. columbinum, L. microphyllum, and L. ornithopus var. pygmaeum. Three species are widespread in South America, whereas the remaining taxa are endemic to the mountainous regions of southeastern Brazil. We present comprehensive descriptions and illustrations for all taxa, as well as an updated key and list of specimens.
