Hyptis albolanata (Hyptidinae, Lamiaceae), a new species from the Cerrado of Brazil

Hyptis albolanata is here described and illustrated. This new species is morphologically similar to Hyptis tetragona due to having ovate to elliptic leaves and a pedunculate capitula, differing mainly in the indumentum, leaf base, and calyx morphology. We provide a full description, a line drawing, and photographs of Hyptis albolanata, as well as a distribution map, a preliminary conservation status assessment, comments on the species ecology and comparison with morphologically similar taxa.
