POSADA-HERRERA, Juan Mauricio    MENDOZA-CIFUENTES, Humberto. REDESCUBRIMIENTO DE MICONIA IMBRICATA (MELASTOMATACEAE) Y SU TRANSFERENCIA AL GÉNERO KILLIPIA, Y COMENTARIOS SOBRE LA POSICIÓN DE LA INFLORESCENCIA. []. , 37, 143, pp.207-213. ISSN 0370-3908.

Miconia imbricata Gleason, is rediscovered a species endemic of Tatamá National Park which is know only from its type. Its description is spread out, its floral characteristics and inflorescence position are evaluated and its conservation state is determined. The morphologic analysis show some mistakes from the interpretation of inflorescence position and an affinity of this species with the genus Killipia, so we proceed to conduct the transfer to this genus.
