Abstract
AbstractThis paper aims to describe and illustrate the fruits, seeds, and seedlings of Chromolucuma flavilatex (Chrysophylloideae, Sapotaceae) from central Amazonia and briefly discusses their taxonomic relevance. The observed characters can support our hypothesis that embryo morphology and seedling type are consistent in Chromolucuma species, as well as in other genera of Chrysophylloideae. In addition, we complement the original description of the fruits and seeds of C. flavilatex collected from the same tree of the type specimen and provide descriptions and illustrations of the early stages of seedling development of this species to facilitate its recognition.
