Resumen
CUEVAS GUZMAN, Ramón; SANTANA MICHEL, Francisco J; SANCHEZ RODRIGUEZ, Enrique V y NUNEZ LOPEZ, Nora M. Cervantesiaceae: New Record of a Naturalized Family for the Flora of Mexico. Acta biol.Colomb. [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.2, pp.431-436. ISSN 0120-548X. https://doi.org/10.15446/abc.v21n2.53621.
We register for the first time in Mexico the naturalized species Acanthosyrisglabrata (family Cervantesiaceae), a hemiparasitic tree only known from northwestern South America. We provide information about its habitat and present an illustration of the species. We propose a hypothesis of maritime commerce between Ecuador and Mexico to account for the presence of the taxon in western Mexico, in an area 3500 km away from its original known distribution.
