Perennial, almost leafless herb, 30-, with a ligneous rhizome, ca. diam. Stems erect, terete and striate, or subangled, 0.1- diam., much ramified at the base, glaber or with short hairs. Leaves scale-like or linear-elliptic, lesser than long, with stipules linear, briefly petiolate, blade 1-3-nerved, margin entire, glaber or with long sparce hairs on both surfaces. Inflorescences terminal, ramified, each branch 2-, ending in a 2-14 flowered umbel. Flowers white, with pedicels 3-, glaber or scarcely pubescent; receptacle glaber or loosely hirsute; floral tube campanulate, 2- long, glaber; sepals 0.7- long; petals ca. long; stamens with filaments long and anthers long; style long, divided at the apex. Fruit 6- long × 5.5- broad, reticulate, glaber.

Iconography. – REISSEK (1861): tab. 41 and Figure 4 View Fig .

Distribution and habitat. – Crumenaria erecta has been collected in the south of Brazil and east of Paraguay ( TORTOSA, 2008; de LIMA, 2010; CUSATO & TORTOSA, 2013), at elevations from 500 to 1300 m.

Phenology. – Crumenaria erecta flowers from August to May.

Etymology. – The specific epithet of C. erecta is taken from its erect habit.

Discussion. – The priority of C. erecta and the treatment of some Paraguayan taxa by HASSLER (1915) are discussed by TORTOSA & al. (2013). Crumenaria erecta differs from the other species of the genus by its almost leafless habit. Some specimens of this species show fasciation in the stems; C. choretroides was based on two of such gatherings (see also Glaziou 20850, Hassler 10637, Irwin 7944, and Weddell s.n.).

We choose as lectoype of C. erecta one of the specimens at BR, which matches the protologue, and for C. choretroides the syntype from Serro de Frio at M which is representative of this taxon. In the case of C. polygaloides , the type specimen at B (negative at F [barcode] F0 BN005862 View Materials digital image!) was destroyed during World War II, so we choose as lectotype the isotype at US.

REISSEK (1861) differentiated C. erecta , C. choretroides , and C. polygaloides by the pubescence (glaber or pubescent) and the section (terete, compresed, or fasciated) of stems, the size of leaves, and the number of flowers of the inflorescences, all characters variable within this taxon.
