Abstract
Two new species of Psychotria (Rubiaceae) from western Cameroon are described and illustrated, their conservation status assessed and their taxonomic affinities discussed. Both species were discovered in Kupe and the Bakossi Mts. Psychotria geophylax Cheek & Sonké has affinities with sect. Flaviflorae E. M. A. Petit, whereas P. bakossiensis Cheek & Sonké falls near sect. Involucratae E. M. A. Petit & Verdc. © The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, 2005.
