Fig. S3 View Figure 3

Type: PARAGUAY. Yerbarles: mountains of the Sierra de Maracayú , 1898, Hassler 5339 (holotype K–000328082!; isotype P–02937439!) .

Shrub to ca. 50 cm tall. Stems erect, branched, villous. Leaves with 2 leaflets, petiolate. Leaflets 15–40 × 10–15 mm, ovate to lanceolate, villous. Stipules lanceolate, 6–7 veined. Inflorescences spiciform, axillary, 15 cm long. Bracteoles 16–19 × 5–7 mm, lanceolate, 5–7 veined, not punctate, villous, green. Loment with 6–articles, each 1.9–2 × 1.9–2 mm, reticulate-veined, bristle-like trichomes 0.6 mm long. Distribution and habitat: Paraguay, endemic. It grows in Tropical Dry Forests.

Conservation Status: Data Deficient (DD). There is insufficient information available about Z. fimbriata to make a definitive assessment of its conservation status. The species has only been documented by a single collection made in 1898 (EOO=0.000 km²; AOO= 4.000 km ²).

Notes: Zornia fimbriata morphologically resembles Z. cryptantha , but it can be distinguished by its lanceolate and not punctate bracteoles (vs. ovate and punctate bracteoles in Z. cryptantha ).
