Abstract

Zamia oligodonta sp. nov., from the Andes of Colombia (department of Risaralda), is described and illustrated. This new species can be distinguished from other species in the genus, through the presence, on the leaflets, of a few coarse subapical teeth, along with an acuminate-falcate apex. A morphological comparison with related species in the genus is established and a revised key for the Colombian species of the genus Zamia L. is presented.
