Summary

Stachytarpheta is one of the most speciose genera of Verbenaceae in Brazil with a high rate of endemism. Stachytarpheta olearyana P.H.Cardoso and S. vianae P.H.Cardoso, two new species endemic to the Espinhaço Range in the state of Minas Gerais, eastern Brazil, are here described and illustrated. Both species have a restricted distribution and are assessed as Critically Endangered (CR). Detailed diagnosis, morphological comparisons, ecological data, and a distribution map are provided for each species.
