Abstract

Pabstiella pleurothalloides, recently considered a synonym of Pabstiella campestris, is here recognized as a distinct species. Pleurothallis mouraeoides is proposed as synonym of Pabstiella campestris and Pleurothallis pfisteri as a synonym of Pabstiella pleurothalloides. Pabstiella varellae, previously described as Pleurothallis mouraeoides var. riograndensis, is recognized as a new species. It is described and illustrated herein. Lectotypes are selected for Pleurothallis campestris and P. pfisteri. Illustrations and updated synonymy lists are provided for the taxa treated in the article.
