Abstract

We provide a synopsis to the Lonchitidaceae in Bolivia, a family comprising a single genus and species in the country and in the Neotropics. The sole species, Lonchitis hirsuta, is widespread and very similar to the only other species in the genus, L. occidentalis, in continental Africa and Madagascar.
