Conservation Status: — Bertolonia reginatoi has an EOO of 1,898 km ² and AOO of 2,069 km ², and should be classified as “Endangered” (EN), following IUCN (2017) categories. This species has been found in the “Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Serra Bonita”, and “Estação Ecológica Estadual de Wenceslau Guimarães”. Notes: — Bertolonia reginatoi is endemic to Bahia, occurring in montane rainforests (Fig. 13d), on shaded and moist slopes. Collected with flowers from December to February and June, and with fruits in February, May, September, and December. Bertolonia reginatoi is recognized by the long petioles (5–15.5 cm long), ovate to widely ovate leaf blades with a cordate base, margins densely ciliate, flowers with pink and apiculate petals, anthers with an undulate surface, and dehiscing through an introrse pore. Bertolonia reginatoi is similar to B. carmoi, however, the leaf margin in B. reginatoi is brownish, which seems to be related to the dense trichomes found there. It is also similar to B. hirsutissima , with populations at Wenceslau Guimarães occurring sympatrically. For more details, see notes under B. hirsutissima in Bacci et al. (2018) and Table 1.Published as part of Bisewski, Gessica C.

Bahia: Wenceslau Guimarães, Bacci 273 (CEPEC!); Goldenberg 1756 (CEPEC!); Thomas 9285 (CEPEC!, NY, RB!). Conservation Status: — Bertolonia hirsutissima occurs inside the “Estação Ecológica Estadual Wenceslau Guimarães”. The species has an EOO of 7 km ² and AOO of 15 km ², and should be classified as “Critically Endangered” (CR), following IUCN (2017) categories. Notes: — Bertolonia hirsutissima is endemic to Bahia, occurring in montane rainforests (Fig. 3f) on rocky, shaded and wet stone walls. Collected with flowers in January and December, and fruits in April. The species is characterized by the widely elliptic to ovate leaf blades with bullate surfaces and petioles densely glandulose-pilose (trichomes 3–5 mm long). It also has petals with an apiculate apex ending in a caducous glandular head and anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore. It is sympatric to B. reginatoi Bacci & Michelangeli (in Bacci et al. 2018: 783) and both share the wide ovate to cordiform leaf blades, petioles and abaxial leaf surfaces densely glandulose-punctate, and flowers with a light green hypanthium and pink petals. Bertolonia hirsutissima differs from B. reginatoi by the bullate/foveolate leaf surfaces (vs. flat in B. reginatoi), hypanthium only glandulose-punctate (vs. hypanthium glandulose-punctate and glandulose-villose) and anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore (vs. introrse). In the state of Bahia, B. hirsutissima have the same bullate/foveolate leaf blades as in B. bullata and B. kollmannii. From these, it differs mainly by the broader leaf blades, flowers with the hypanthium only glandulose-punctate and anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore. For more details see Bacci et al. (2016) and Table 1.Published as part of Bisewski, Gessica C.

Notes: — Bertolonia linearifolia is endemic to Bahia, occurring in montane forest (Fig. 13a), on shaded and moist slopes. Collected with flowers in January and November, fruits in January, August, October and November. The species is easily distinguished from other species of the genus mainly because of its lanceolate, 0.5–2 cm wide leaf blades, but also by the rounded or attenuate leaf base and acute apex. Only two other species of Bertolonia have similar leaf blades: B. angustifolia Cogniaux (1886: 56) and B. valenteana Baumgratz (1990: 141), both occurring in Rio de Janeiro state. Moreover, it has flowers with pink petals and anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore. For more details, see Bacci et al. (2018) and Table 1.Published as part of Bisewski, Gessica C.

Stamens 3.2–4.7 mm long; filaments 1.4–2.3 mm long; anthers 1.9–2.4 mm long, cream colored, lanceolate, surface rugose or undulate, pore rounded, non-thickened margins, extrorse; connective prolonged (ca. 0.5 mm), dorsally bilobed. Style 3.4–5 mm long, slightly curved at the apex, glabrous. Fruits ca. 0.5 × 0.8 cm. Seeds reniform. Examined material: — BRAZIL. Bahia: Macarani, Carvalho 6995 (ALCB!, CEPEC!, HUEFS!, NY, UESC!, UPCB!). Additional material: — BRAZIL. Minas Gerais: Santa Maria do Salto, Amorim 5548 (CEPEC!, NY); Amorim 5845 (CEPEC!); Thomas 14624 (CEPEC!). Conservation Status: — There are only two known populations of the species, but most specimens were found in “Fazenda Duas Barras” (Minas Gerais), an area of primary forest inside the “Parque Nacional Alto Cariri”. Bertolonia kollmannii has an EOO of 82 km ² and AOO of 201 km ², and should be classified as “Critically Endangered” (CR), following IUCN (2017) categories. Notes: — Bertolonia kollmannii occurs in a restricted area along the border between the states of Bahia and Minas Gerais, in montane rainforests (Fig. 3h), in moist and shaded slopes near water. Collected with flowers in February and August, with fruits in February, April and August. The species can be recognized by the small, ovate and bullate leaf blades with an acute apex and crenate margins, flowers with fimbriate sepals, pink petals with the apex not apiculate and anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore. Bertolonia kollmannii is similar to B. wurdackiana Baumgratz (1990: 125), endemic of the state of Espírito Santo. Bertolonia kollmannii differs by the usually smaller leaf blades (2.4–5.5 × 1.6–4.7 cm) with an acute apex and crenate margins (vs. usually bigger leaf blades (5.8–15 × 3–8 cm) with an obtuse or rounded apex and serrate margins in B. wurdackiana), by the pink, 5.5–7 mm long petals, with an obtuse apex (vs. white petals, 7.8–8.3 mm long, with an acute and dorsally apiculate apex) and cream-colored anthers dehiscing through an extrorse pore (vs. yellow anthers dehiscing through an introrse pore).
