It is endemic to the Serra do Tabuleiro, southern Brazil, known for few collections from only one locality. Its area of occupation (AOO) is 4 km ² and the extent of occurrence (EOO) is less than 2 km ². Despite the area in which it occurs is included in a conservation unit, the habitat is endangered by low extension of occurrence, presence of cattle and a gradual increase of people visiting the place for leisure.</p><p>Etymology: —the species is named in honor of the botanist João Iganci, a great researcher on the evolution of highland ecosystems and distribution of endemic species in southern Brazil.</p><p>Phenology: —flowers and fruits from July to August.</p><p>Paratypes: — BRAZIL.

Its occurrence predominates in slopes facing south, sheltered from the incidence of strong winds, common in the high altitude region of Serra do Tabuleiro, which reaches more than 1200 meters of elevation. The area of the Serra do Tabuleiro State Park consists of a large heterogeneity of vegetation formations of forest-grasslands mosaic. In the higher areas there is grassland vegetation that, together with the Ombrophilous Mixed Forest dominated by Araucaria angustifolia (Bertol.) Kuntze (1898: 375), forms a still very conserved vegetation mosaic in contrast with the anthropic influences of the lowlands. As the altitude decreases, the species that characterize the Ombrophilous Dense Forest become more abundant and the rural areas become more frequent. In the Serra do Tabuleiro, the highland grasslands are isolated in patches between the Araucaria forest. These conditions of altitude and isolation promote a differentiated and botanically poorly sampled micro-habitat that is conducive to the occurrence of endemic species unknown to science (Iganci et al. 2011). Despite the special biotic and abiotic conditions of highland grasslands of Serra do Tabuleiro, its flora remains poorly studied.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03B1D61F391125366FEFFCBCFD28FD89	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
