Resumen

Securidaca poeoesioehoeorum from Araracuara region, at the middle Caquetá River basin (northwestern Amazon basin), Caquetá department, Colombia, is described, illustrated, and its morphological relationships with an allied species are discussed. The new species is similar to S. leiocarpa but differs by the pubescence, shape, and size of its leaves, outer and lateral enlarged sepals, the inflorescence, the keel petal, stamens number and fruit shape and size. A complete description, an illustration, information about habitat, phenology, conservation status, the species name etymology and an abstract in Pøøsiøhø (Andoke) idiom are presented. A key for identifying species of Securidaca to Colombia is also provided. Securidaca poeoesioehoeorum is remarkable for its four stamens, in an otherwise predominantly eight stamens genus. This new finding increases to 27 the number of species of the genus to Colombia flora. This new taxon is the first plant species name that honors the Pøøsiøhø nation.
