2.4. Utricularia breviscapa C.Wright ex Griseb. View in CoL , Catalogus Plantarum Cubensium 161: 1-301 (1866). [ Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 and 6N View FIGURE 6 ].

Hydrophyte. Submerged, dichotomous and capillary leaves. Inflated and flexible scape, with a basal whorl of floats. Basifixed bracts, entire margins, absent bracteoles. Ascending pedicels in fruits. Sepals with conspicuous but nonprominent nerves, plan and entire margins. Yellow corolla, gibbous palate, deeply trilobed lower lip, straight and bifid spur, as long as and parallel to the lower lip. Circumscissile capsule.

Selected material:— Belmonte, Km 20 a 21 da Rodovia Belmonte / Itapebi, 26 July 1988, fl. and fr., T.S. dos Santos 4392 ( CEPEC) .

Comments:— Utricularia breviscapa can be confused with U. foliosa , but it differs by its whorl of floats at the base of the scape and trilobed lower corolla lip (vs. absence of floats and bilobed lower corolla lip). In Bahia state, this species is represented by only one record, in a flooded area of restinga alongside the road.
