Abstract

Penstemon dugesii is described from the central region of the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. This species belongs to Penstemon subg. Penstemon sect. Fasciculus. Here, we describe this new species and compare it with P. coriaceus, to which it is morphologically most similar. We also propose its conservation status and provide a distribution map of both species.
