Acknowledgements
I would like to thank John R. I. Wood, firstly for being such an amiable host during my first visit to Bolivia in 2007 where I was able to collect the species concerned and, secondly, for useful discussions on the distribution of the plants as well as comments on the general habitats where all were found. Grateful thanks are also due to Margaret Tebbs in providing the black and white illustrations and to two anonymous reviewers for their comments on an earlier version of the manuscript.
