39493111FF8B651EFF4EFDA4FE995E16.taxon	distribution	Distribution and habitat: ― Chionanthus chrysopetalus is known from two regions in Peru: Cusco and Ucayali. It grows in lowland, non-flooded moist and primary forests. IUCN red list category: — Chionanthus chrysopetalus is here considered as Data Deficient [DD] under the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2017). There is no information about its population size or occurrence of this taxon within protected areas. Taxonomic notes: — Chionanthus chrysopetalus is characterized by an hispidulous indument that covers all branches, petioles, midribs, and inflorescences. This indumentum is reddish when fresh and yellow when dry. It resembles C. implicatus (Rusby) P. S. Green and C. compactus Sw. in the elliptic leaves, but differs in the hispidulous indumentum (vs. puberulous in C. implicatus, and tomentose to puberulous in C. compactus) and the yellow corollas (vs. white in C. implicatus and C. compactus). It also shares inflorescences with similar lengths (ca. 1.5 – 6.5 cm) with C. implicatus.	en	Lombardi, Julio Antonio (2017): Chionanthus chrysopetalus (Oleaceae), a New Species from Peru.
