Acropogon moratianus Callm., Munzinger & Lowry, sp. nov. is endemic to three ultramafic massifs, Boulinda, Kopeto and Paeoua, along the north-western coast of Grande Terre. This rare, endangered species differs from other members of the genus by its large 5-lobed leaves whose abaxial surface is covered by erect to divergent stellate trichomes and the subspherical shape of its follicles, which bear a pointed apex. Line drawings and color photos are provided, along with a discussion of its morphological affinities and a preliminary risk of extinction assessment. specialized Acropogon Malvaceae New Caledonia taxonomy threatened species new species NOUVELLE CALEDONIE 076 37 1 131-137 2015 1280-8571 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010064815 10.5252/a2015n1a8 1280-8571 [F B010064815] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010064815 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/divers15-11/010064815.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2015-09-04 2017-08-23 fdi:010064815 fre
