Other specimens from the same Peninsula were mistakenly identified as M. margaritae , but are in fact Mimosa tricephala , one of the closest relatives of M. margaritae . During recent expeditions to the island, M. margaritae was rediscovered. Here, we provide the first description of the flowers and fruits of this species. The taxonomic status of the southern peninsular endemic M. lagunensis is also discussed; we conclude that it should be treated as a variety of M. tricephala, and provide a new combination, M. tricephala var. lagunensis . 2015 artículo científico 0187-7151 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57440276002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=574 Acta Botanica Mexicana application/pdf Instituto de Ecología, A.C.
