22. Sida urens Linnaeus (1759: 1145) View in CoL ( Figures 12A–E View FIGURE 12 , 13 View FIGURE 13 , 14U View FIGURE 14 )

Lectotype (designated by Rodrigo 1944: t. 17):— JAMAICA. Browne s.n. (LINN 866.20! [digital image]).

Taxonomic notes: —The species belongs to section Nelavagae and is characterized by the presence of muticous or submuticous mericarps, stems with glandular trichomes and with long simple trichomes, and by decumbent or scandent habit ( Figures 12A–E View FIGURE 12 , 14U View FIGURE 14 ; Table 1 View TABLE 1 ) ( Krapovickas 2006).

Distribution, habitat and conservation status: — Sida urens has a wide distribution, and occurs in tropical Africa, the Caribbean, and tropical America, from southern Florida and Mexico to northern Argentina and Brazil, where it is found in all regions, but not in all states ( Krapovickas 2006, Brandão et al. 2017, Bovini 2020). In Rio Grande do Sul the species occurs in Aristida grassland, Park grassland, Inland subtropical grassland, Coastal grassland, Araucaria Forest, Coastal subtropical Forest and in Tropical Forest, in ruderal environments and anthropized grasslands ( Figure 13 View FIGURE 13 ). The species is here considered Least Concern (LC) because it has large EOO and AOO, since it is a frequent and often ruderal species and is present in more than one continent.
