Abstract
Saurauia homotricha, a new species from montane forests of western Hon duras and Nicaragua, is described and illustrated. It is placed in the Central American series Gymnogynae Buscalioni and is most similar to Saurauia rubiformis Vatke, from which it differs most markedly in the type, length, and distribution of trichomes on the leaves and the abax ial surface of the sepals.
