Abstract

Three new species of Clavija, C. laplanadae (Narino, Colombia), C. subandina (Napo, Ecuador), and C. obtusifolia (Huanuco-San Martin, Peru), are described and illustrated, and their af¬ finities are briefly discussed.Since the completion of my revision of Clavija (St&hl, 1991) many additional collections of the ge¬ nus have been made or brought to my attention.In this material several undescribed species have been encountered.The three species described in this paper were all gathered in premontane or lower montane Andean forest, the type of habitat richest in species of Clavija.
