  abstract = {{W}estern {E}cuador harbours high plant diversity and endemism. {T}he region of {M}anabi has known intense deforestation over the last decades, but lowland rain forests persist in a network of small forest fragment patches. {H}ere, we describe two new magnoliid tree species from a small privately owned forest fragment known as {L}a {E}speranza reserve, in the {E}l {C}armen canton ({M}anabi): {A}niba ecuadorica ({L}auraceae) and {G}uatteria esperanzae ({A}nnonaceae). {F}or both species a detailed morphological description, a preliminary conservation status following {IUCN} criteria, distribution maps and high quality photographs are provided. {T}his represents the second species of {A}niba known to occur in western {E}cuador, while there are 14 species of {G}uatteria documented for {E}cuador west of the {A}ndes. {A}niba ecuadorica is only known from two localities and has a preliminary {IUCN} conservation status of {C}ritically {E}ndangered, while {G}uatteria esperanzae is known from six localities and is suggested to be {E}ndangered. {F}inally, we provide a quick overview of {G}uatteria species in western {E}cuador with a key to the species in the region. {T}he description of these two new tree species underlines the important need of prospection and conservation of the remnant forests in the {M}anabi region of western {E}cuador. {W}e also stress the importance of privately owned forest fragments for biodiversity conservation.},
