摘要描述了产于巴西北方的一个新种-白藓科灌木-白藓属植物。该新种的特征是椭圆形披针形的叶，仅有一对次脉贴近边缘。它也是唯一的种子有一个小乳突的种皮，一个字符，直到现在未知的Miconieae。这一新种的描述来自巴西亚马孙州马瑙斯以北一条主要道路附近的一个相对较好的采集区，进一步证明了我们对许多新热带区植物缺乏了解。
Abstract Miconia papillosperma, a new species of Melastomataceae shrubs from Northern Brazil is described and illustrated. This new species is characterized by elliptic lanceolate leaves with the only pair of secondary veins running close to the margin. It is also unique in having seeds with a papillose testa, a character until now unknown in the Miconieae. The description of this new species from a relatively well collected area near a major road north of Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, is further evidence of our lack of knowledge on plants in many Neotropical areas.
