Abstract

A new species of Oryctina (Loranthaceae) from Guyana, O. atrolineata Kuijt is described and illustrated. It possesses one-flowered inflorescences, the flowers being hexamerous and each subtended by a bract and two minute bracteoles. A peculiarity of the style is a distinctive fusiform, subterminal swelling. Oryctina atrolineata is closely related, and similar to, O. myrsinites (Eichler) Kuijt.
