Affonso &amp; Th. Greco 128 (Holotype FLOR , Isotypes, ICN, MO, NY, K, RB)</p><p>Figure 1, A–F.</p><p>Diagnosis: —Differs from R. polyantha by having shorter spikelets (2.8–4.0 vs. 4.0–5.0 mm), fascicles with fewer spikelets, deciduous scales when the achenes are mature, and narrower leaves (1.6–2.0 (–3) vs. 2.0–4.0 (–4.5) mm).</p><p>Perennial, caespitose, rhizomes short. Culm erect, smooth, obtusely trigonous, up to 63 cm long and 1.5–2.5 mm wide. Leaves flattened, erect, linear, shorter than the culm, 1.6–2 (–3) mm wide, smooth to slightly scabrous distally along margins and abaxially along the midvein. Inflorescence comprising a terminal and 1–4 lateral coflorescences, the peduncles 1–17 cm long, the subtending bracts 5–29 cm long and 1.0-2.0 mm wide; terminal coflorescence with 1–10 fascicles, the bracts longer than or equaling the anthelae; fascicles of 3–15 spikelets. Spikelets lanceolate, 2.8– 4 × 0.7–1.4 mm, maturing 1 to 3 achenes, comprising 6–9 scales, the proximal 2 sterile, the next 3–5 subtending fertile flowers; scales brown, mucronate, cymbiform, ovate, 2.3–3.3 × 1–1.4 mm. Perianth bristles 6, shorter than or equaling the stylopodium, 1–2.4 mm long, antrorsely scabrous. Stigma bilobate. Stamen 1. Achene biconvex to almost plano-convex, obovoid to ellipsoid, 1–1.4 × 0.7–0.9 mm, pale to dark brown or greenish pale brown while immature, transversely rugulose, with 12–14 transverse rugae; stylopodium light brown, rarely blackish, triangular, 0.7–1.3 mm long, 0.4–0.5 mm wide in the base, with apex acute to acuminate; stipe 0.1–0.2 mm long.</p><p>Geographical distribution: —The species has only been recorded so far in the states of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, southern Brazil, in the Atlantic Forest biome.</p><p>Habitat:—Open, dry or humid areas from the coast to the high fields at elev. 1400 m. Found in environments such as damp or drained fields, marshes, bogs, river banks, forest edges and hillside forest clearings.</p><p>Phenology: —Collected in fruit throughout the year.</p><p>IUCN Classification: —Near Threatened (NT) [Extent of occurrence: (NT); Area of occupancy: (LC)].</p><p>The categorization IUCN as Near Threatened (NT) is due to the scarcity of data, since the species is relatively common and occurs in different environments, from the coast to high fields.</p><p>Etymology: —The specific epithet refers to the glumes that are deciduous as soon as the fruit matures, a striking feature in this species.</p><p>Note: —This species has enough variation in the attributes of achenes, which appear to be close to R. polyantha and R. marisculus . It differs from R. polyantha in the usually narrower leaves (1.6–2 (–3) vs. 2–4 (–4.5) mm), scattered fascicles with fewer spikelets, shorter spikelets (2.8–4.0 vs. 4.0–5.0mm) and deciduous scales when the achenes are mature. It differs from R. marisculus mainly in the shorter spikelets (2.8–4.0 vs. 4.5–6.5 mm) and bristles shorter than or equaling the stylopodium (vs. widely surpassing the stylopodium apex).

In Brazil, occurs in wetlands and peatlands; it is associated with cold regions on high fields between 800 and 2000 m elevation.</p><p>Phenology:—Collected with fruits between October and April.</p><p>IUCN classification:—Least Concern (LC) [Extent of occurrence: (LC); Area of occupancy: (LC)].</p><p>Note:—When comparing specimens collected in Venezuela with those in southern Brazil (see Table 2), we observed that the differences are very subtle. Mostly, these differences are related to the number of spikelets in the inflorescence, color of achene and relative size of perigonial bristles. In our view, these features are variable and may have different states in the same individual, or between individuals of the same population. In addition, there is a very large overlap between the different vegetative characteristics of the materials from Brazil and Venezuela. Therefore, in this first analysis, morphological data did not allow us to separate the material from southern and southeastern Brazil as a distinct species.</p><p>This research found just eight collections of this species in Venezuela. Steyermark (1957) treats R. gollmeri as a rare species, originally collected around Caracas (probably in the 1850s), and apparently there were no records of new collections in Venezuela until 1945. In Brazil, however, the species is relatively common in bogs in Campos de altitude of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. In wetlands with thick Sphagnum, it may have vertical stolons (P. Weber 298) and longer, sometimes prostrate culms, and only a few leaves, making it more difficult to see. In wetlands without Sphagnum, it usually has shorter stems and a higher number of leaves. Its only record for the southeast region of Brazil is in Rio de Janeiro, in Itatiaia at 2000 m elevation.</p><p>This is a species associated with cold, damp weather, probably restricted to high elevations. It is believed that this disjunct distribution of the taxon is related to the topography and climate features of South America. The central part of Brazil consists mainly of plains and plateaus at 600–1650 m, with a long dry season, which is probably a limiting factor for the occurrence of the species in central Brazil.</p><p>This disjunction of populations may have occurred by vicariance or long-distance dispersal. In the case of vicariance, groups of species of different families would be expected to become relict in the same areas and have similar distribution, but this has not been detected to date. Thus, the second possibility is more likely; this process may have taken place by long-distance dispersal of the fruits, which has possibly occurred through migratory birds that inhabit these similar environments in the two countries.</p><p>In addition, Steyermark (1957) erroneously treats Rhynchospora tenerrima Boeckeler as a synonym of R. gollmeri, both having been published in the same work. Later, Thomas (1998) clarifies the issue by treating R. tenerrima Boeckeler as a synonym of R. tepuiana Steyermark.</p><p>Neotypification proved to be necessary because the only material originally indicated in the protologue, J. Gollmer s.n, from Caracas in the Federal District, which was at B and was destroyed. Therefore, we have chosen as the neotype a collection also from Venezuela (G. Davidse &amp; A.C. González 19831), which was collected about 280 km east of where Julius Gollmer collected the original type.</p><p>Selected material: — BRAZIL.
