Beaucarnea olsonii is described and illustrated from tropical deciduous forests of SW Puebla, Mexico. The new species can be distinguished from other Beaucarnea species by its massively swollen base that abruptly tapers into slender branches, by its conspicuously long stigma, and by its pedicel articulation that occurs at 2/3 of the length of the pedicel below the flower. With this new addition, the total number of endemic species of Beaucarnea for Mexico increases to 10, making this country the greatest center of diversification and endemism for the genus. We also provide a distribution map and a conservation status recommendation for the new species, as well as a key to the Beaucarnea species of southern central Mexico.

Representatives of some poorly known spider species collected in the rainforest litter of the Orchid Island (Taiwan) are illustrated and discussed here. A new species, Brignoliella tao sp. nov. (Fam. Tetrablemmidae), endemic to Orchid Island, is described based on both sexes. The previously unknown female of Theridiosoma triumphale Zhao & Li, 2012 (Fam. Theridiosomatidae), is described for the first time. Zoma taiwanica (Zhang, Zhu & Tso 2006) comb. nov., from the same family, is illustrated and its transfer from the genus Theridiosoma O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1879 to Zoma Saaristo, 1996 is proposed on the basis of morphological characters. Habitus and genitalia of the endemic species Gongylidioides angustus Tu & Li, 2006 (Fam. Linyphiidae) are also illustrated.

Valeriana iganciana, an endemic species from the Serra do Tabuleiro highlands of Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil, is described and illustrated. The new species shares morphological affinities with V. ulei, from which it is distinguished mainly by leaves with entire margin, by the cymose architecture of the inflorescence and by the triquetrous and elliptical fruits with annular to dentate calyx.

Centaurea crocata Franco (1984: 474, 572) is the name currently used for a species of Asteraceae that is endemic to a small area in the southwest of Portugal, extending from Monchique (Algarve) to Cercal (Baixo Alentejo). The plant was first collected by Friedrich Welwitsch in 1847, in Monchique, during his residence (1847–1848) in the province of Algarve (Trimen 1873: 3). The following year he collected it again but further north, in Baixo Alentejo. Welwitsch regarded it as a new species and informally named it ‘Centaurea crocea’, as is apparent from the name written on his specimens of this species that are held in LISU (Garcia Jacas & Susanna 1991). However, he never published this name. Later authors working on the flora of Portugal, such as Sampaio (1909: 60, 1947: 597) and Coutinho (1913: 657, 1939: 776) misidentified Welwitsch’s and other collectors’ material as C. prolongoi Boissier ex Candolle (1838: 303, originally published as ‘prolongi’, corrected to ‘prolongoi’ as it commemorates the Spanish botanist Pablo Prolongo y Garcia). It was only much later that Franco (1984), in the second volume of his Flora of Portugal, concurred with Welwitsch’s view that the material belonged to a separate species and described it as C. crocata, using an epithet similar to that of Welwitsch’s unpublished name. Both epithets ‘crocata’ and ‘crocea’ originate from Latin and mean saffron-coloured. Saffron is a product of a species of the genus Crocus Linnaeus (1753: 36), a name with the same origin.

Rubus zielinskii M. M. Wolanin & M. N. Wolanin, a new species from south-east Poland is described and illustrated. Rubus zielinskii is a tetraploid (2n=28) belonging to the series Sprengeliani based on morphology. It is most similar to Rubus sprengelii from which it differs in the inflorescence, being leafy to the apex, the larger flowers, paler colour of the vegetative stem and straighter prickles. The species occurs mostly along forest roads, ditches and forest edges. A species conservation assessment for Rubus zielinskii determines its threat status to be Least Concern.

Pycreus rubidomontanus is described as a new species. It is relatively widespread in tropical West Africa where it had been confused up to present with P. atrorubidus, a very rare endemic species from Zambia in south-central Africa that probably is known only from the type gathering. Differences between these and other similar species are discussed and the new species is copiously illustrated.

We describe here Begonia medeiroii, a narrow endemic species from the Atlantic Rainforest. The conservation status of this species was assessed as critically endangered according to IUCN criteria. This species resembles to B. catharinensis and B. hirtella in some characteristics, differing among other features due the presence of adventitious vegetative buds on the adaxial surface of the leaves.

Dienerella (Dienerella) katarzynae sp. nov. from Kazakhstan is described. The generic characteristics and diagnostics, including the aedeagus, are illustrated. A key to the subgenus Dienerella, a group of similar species including D. beloni, D. pilifera and D. elegans, is given, and an updated global checklist of Dienerella species is provided. To date, 41 taxa in the genus Dienerella (19 species in the subgenus Cartoderema and 22 species in the subgenus Dienerella) have been described globally. In this paper, we summarize the distribution and endemism of Dienerella species worldwide: currently, 15 endemic species from the genus Dienerella (5 species in the subgenus Cartoderema and 10 species in the subgenus Dienerella) are known.
