Abstract

We describe two new species of Heteropterys (Malpighiaceae) endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Espírito Santo State, Brazil. Heteropterys eucalyptifolia and H. follianum belong to the Aptychia informal group, due to their petioles with a pair of glands at the base, sessile pedicels, petals exposed in the enlarging bud, and strongly heteromorphic filaments. Morphological descriptions, illustrations, a distribution map and information on the conservation status of the species are provided.

Descrevemos duas novas espécies de Heteropterys (Malpighiaceae) endêmicas da Floresta Atlântica do estado do Espírito Santo, Brasil. Heteropterys eucalyptifolia e H. follianum pertencem ao grupo informal Aptychia, por apresentar pecíolo com um par de glândulas na base, pedicelos sésseis, pétalas expostas no botão floral, e filetes fortemente heteromórficos. São fornecidas descrições morfológicas, ilustrações, mapa de distribuição e estado de conservação das espécies.
