Description.
Trees 1.5-5 m tall. Leaves slightly congested at the branch tips, imparipinnate with one pair of leaflets, obtrullate in outline, 1.2-2.9 × 1.3-2.1 cm; rachises densely villous, points of leaflet attachment with a tuft of long hairs; stipular sheaths apically truncate or slightly spurred, densely villous on the outer surfaces; leaflets obovate in outline, second pair from the terminal leaflet the largest, one of this pair 1.3-2.1 × 0.3-0.6 cm; margin serrate with 5-10 teeth, apically round or emarginate, basally unequally attenuate; upper leaflet surfaces glabrous to sparsely villous; lower leaflet surfaces with a dense layer of very short, white or yellowish pannose hairs. Inflorescences pendant, 2.8-5.3 cm long, bearing 4-5 flowers; floral bracts 3.9-5.1 mm long, narrowly triangular, densely villous on the outer surface; rachises villous. Flowers 5.9-6.8 mm diam.; sepals 3, ovate, green, sparsely villous outside; stamens 19-23, anthers orbicular, with a dense tuft of straight white hairs on the upper half; styles fimbriate, 2.4-2.5 mm long. Fruits turbinate, with 3-4 irregular flattened ridges with a series of spines, densely villous; 6.2-6.9 × 4.2-5.9 mm including spines. Tetraploid.
Distribution, habitat and ecology.
Polylepis tomentella is distributed in southern Bolivia and northwest Argentina at 2750-4950 m elevation (Fig. 116 View Figure 116 ). The forests of this species are usually homogeneous, but are occasionally mixed with Dasyphyllum hystrix and Buddleia aromatica ( Navarro et al. 2005). Polylepis tomentella flowers during the dry season (May-October) and fruits at the beginning of the wet season (August-December) ( Domic et al. 2013). Trees produce three times more flowers (44.7 ± 6.4 flowers/branch) and fruits (24 ± 2.7 fruits/branch) than shrubs (15.86 ± 2.18 flowers/branch; 9.3 ± 1.3 fruits/branch) ( Domic et al. 2013). Maternal tree size and seed mass have a positive effect of seed germination and survival ( Domic et al. 2020). Populations of P. tomentella with different levels of human disturbance have also different percentage of saplings and seedings, with lower percentages in strongly disturbed than in moderately disturbed populations, even though reproductive individuals produce twice as many flowers and fruits. This suggests that fruit production does not limit regeneration and post-dispersal mechanisms may decrease seed germination and increase seedling mortality ( Domic et al. 2014). Polylepis tomentella has a high proportion of non-viable seed that are aborted due a variety of reasons, including a fungal infection that might reduce the fecundity of the host tree ( Domic et al. 2017). Hybrids between P. tomentella and P. besseri have been reported in Bolivia ( Kessler 1995b).
Conservation status.
The EOO for Polylepis tomentella is estimated as 94,183 km2, the AOO is assessed at 436 km2, and it is known from 75 locations. The species was categorized as NT in the World List of Threatened Trees ( Oldfield et al. 1998). Based on its fragmented habitat affected by human disturbance, it was listed as EN (B2b(i,iii)) in the Red List of Bolivia ( Arrázola et al. 2012). No conservation actionshave been taken to date. Specific threats are traditional use for extensive livestock grazing, firewood extraction and additionally in rainy areas, for Andean tuber crops, cereals and fodder. We assess P. tomentella as VU (A1, B1a+B2a, C2a).
Notes.
Polylepis tomentella can be distinguished from the most similar species P. incana by the leaflet margins (serrate versus crenate), lower leaflet surface (with resinous exudate versus without exudate) and inflorescences with fewer flowers (4-5 versus 5-11). For additional morphological similarities, see under P. fjeldsaoi , P. incanoides , P. nana and P. tarapacana .
