Silva 67 (RBR).</p> <p>Distribution:— Clidemia hirta is widely distributed species from Central America to Argentina (Baumgratz et al. 2006). In Brazil it is found in almost all states, usually in open areas, sunny and very anthropized habitats (Baumgratz et al. 2006; Michelangeli &amp; Reginato 2012). It is classified as Vulnerable for the municipality of Rio de Janeiro (Baumgratz 2000). In Malaysia, Hawaii, Tanzania, and Madagascar it has become a naturalized weed (Almeda 2009, Gleason 1939, Wurdack 1962, 1980).</p> <p>Comments:—This is the first record for Marambaia, where C. hirta only occurs in Dense Submontane Ombrophilous Forest. It is distinguished mainly by the inner torus with an irregular tooth-fimbriated membranaceous ring, and calyx with slightly denticulate internal lobes or reduced to a membranaceous and sinuous ring.

It resembles C. hirta by the bullate adaxial leaves surface, yet with moderate to dense cover of numerous setose, glandularsetose and stellate trichomes. Clidemia urceolata may be sometimes mistaken with C. capitellata (Bonpland 1816: 5) Don (1823: 310) [= C. neglecta Don (1823: 307)], a related species that differs by its conspicuous bracteoles, and less dense glandular-pubescence (Wurdack 1971).

It is distinguished mainly by the winged branches, the flat leaves on both surfaces, and the adaxial surface with appressed strigose trichomes, basally thickened, 1–2-branched.
