Abstract

A new species, Rhynchosia bolusii, is described. It is closely similar to R. capensis in the details of its leaves and long, slender peduncles, but differs mainly in its shrubby, non-twining habit and few-flowered inflorescences. It is known only from the summit of the Great Swartberg Mountains in the Western Cape Province.
