Nicotiana azambujae is an endemic species from Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil, that was rediscovered after 73 years of its last known collection. The first in vivo pictures of this species were taken, its conservation status was assessed, and its morphologic description and habitat preferences were updated. A possible mistake in the type of voucher label from the originally collected locality was also discussed.
Nicotiana azambujae is an endemic species from Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil, that was described in 1964 and has not been seen since then. During fieldwork, we found a population in Alto Matador, about 70 km from the presumable type collection, after 73 years of its last known collection. Thus, we bring the first in vivo pictures of this species, assess its conservation status, update the morphologic description and discuss its habitat preferences. Also, we discuss a possible mistake in the type of voucher label from the originally collected locality.
