FIRST RECORD OF THE GENUS OXYRHYNCHUS BRANDEGEE (FABACEAE) IN PANAMA.

During a field trip to the corregimiento of Santa Rosa (Chiriquí province) in December 2019, a striking liana with purple-pink flowers, trifoliate leaves and trinerved blades was collected. Through the review of specialized taxonomic literature and comparisons of herbarium specimens, it was found that this specimen belongs to the genus Oxyrhynchus Brandegee (Fabaceae) which turned out to be a taxon not registered in the Panamanian flora. The new record, O. trinervius (Donn. Sm.) Rudd is illustrated with photographs of the vegetative and floral structures from living material.
