038CDE6C2F5EFFFAA8BBD7833D06FC37.taxon	distribution	Distribution and Habitat: — Dictyanthus reflexiflorus is distributed in a small area of central Michoacán (Fig. 4), in the Balsas Basin province (Morrone et al. 2017), in tropical deciduous forest, from 1170 – 1185 m. Phenology: — Flowering has been recorded in September.	en	Lozada-Pérez, Lucio, Cortez, Ericka B., Perez-Garcia, Maria De La Luz, González, César Ramiro Martínez, Martínez-Ambriz, Emmanuel (2025): Dictyanthus reflexiflorus (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) a new species from Mexico.

038CDE6C2F5EFFFAA8BBD7833D06FC37.taxon	etymology	Etymology: — The epithet reflexiflorus refers to the reflexed corolla, a distinctive feature that is unique in Dictyanthus. IUCN conservation assessment: — Information about Dictyanthus reflexiflorus is scarce, with only one population known, although the surrounding area was explored, ca. 1 km 2. For this reason, we suggest that it be assigned the category of Data Deficient (DD) (IUCN 2022) until a thorough evaluation is conducted in the adjacent hills and ravines. The type locality is not part of a natural protected area, and we have not carried out an extensive vegetation survey of the area. Taxonomic notes: — Dictyanthus reflexiflorus is very distinctive due to its reflexed corolla, with a tube 10 - lobed closely pressed to the side of the gynostegium (Fig. 3 E, G). All other species have a rotate or campanulate corolla, which is smooth towards its base inside (Stevens 1988, 1999, 2000; González-Martínez et al. 2019; Alvarado-Cárdenas et al. 2022). Similarly, the very reduced size of the gynostegial corona, which is limited to the base of the limb, is different from that in other species where the corona is almost completely adnate to the corolla. This unusual structure is contrasted by the star-shaped style-head with an unusually dark. The new species is endemic to the state of Michoacán and known only from two collections from the same locality. The climbing habit is shared with D. altatensis, but in this species the corolla is rotate, and the tube is not 10 - lobed at the base.	en	Lozada-Pérez, Lucio, Cortez, Ericka B., Perez-Garcia, Maria De La Luz, González, César Ramiro Martínez, Martínez-Ambriz, Emmanuel (2025): Dictyanthus reflexiflorus (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) a new species from Mexico.
