Abstract

A new species of Hoffmannia (Rubiaceae) restricted to the La Cangreja National Park in Puriscal, Costa Rica, is described and illustrated in this paper. Compared to the rest of the species in the neotropical zone, Hoffmannia stephaniae is distinguished by the subsessile and linear leaves. In addition, the underside of the leaf blade has minute white points (stomata) and minute and numerous lines of raphides.
