| Abstract | Machaerium sect. Lineata, with around 30 species of trees, shrubs and lianas, occurs from southern Mexico to northern Argentina and is characterized by the presence of spinescent stipules and leaflets with cladodromous venation. The difficulty of distinguishing species in this section is compounded by a proliferation of taxonomic names. The taxonomy, morphology, and geographic distribution of Machaerium hirtum and four allied species of section Lineata were investigated. The results include the circumscription of the M. hirtum alliance to include M. aculeatum, M. eriocarpum, M. hirtum, M. isadelphum, and M. sericiflorum, as well as two basionyms and 26 synonyms (of which 11 are listed here for the first time), and the designation of the neotype of M. sericiflorum, the lectotypes of M. angustifolium, M. angustifolium var. β, M. angustifolium fo. glauca and M. armatum, and the epitype of M. hirtum. In addition to the wide variation and overlap of certain morphological characters, the problems in the circumscription of this complex may also be related to their broad distribution range, which corresponds to that known for the genus as a whole. Vegetative and reproductive characters were used to delimit the five species. Among the important characters are the dimensions and indumentum of the leaflets, bracteoles, calyx, and banner petal, and the presence of diadelphous stamens. Machaerium isadelphum and M. hirtum have the largest geographic range, while M. eriocarpum is restricted to southwestern South America and M. aculeatum and M. sericiflorum are endemic to Brazil. Identification keys, descriptions, illustrations, geographic distributions, and habitat are used to distinguish the species. Machaerium sect. Lineata compreende cerca de 30 espécies de árvores, arbustos e lianas, presentes do sul do México até a Argentina e se caracteriza pela presença de estípulas espinescentes e folíolos de venação cladódroma. A dificuldade para a distinção entre as espécies da seção ocasionou muitas divergências nomenclaturais. A taxonomia, morfologia e distribuição geográfica de M. hirtum e quatro espécies afins da seção Lineata foi investigada. Os resultados incluíram a circunscrição do complexo taxonômico M. hirtum, composto por M. aculeatum, M. eriocarpum, M. hirtum, M. isadelphum e M. sericiflorum, bem como dois basiônimos e 26 sinônimos (11 citados aqui pela primeira vez), a designação do neótipo de M. sericiflorum, dos lectótipos de M. angustifolium, M. angustifolium var. β, M. angustifolium fo. glauca e M. armatum e do epítipo de M. hirtum. Além da ampla variação e sobreposição de certos caracteres morfológicos, os problemas na circunscrição deste complexo também estão relacionados à sua amplitude de distribuição, correspondente ao esperado para o gênero como um todo. Foram reconhecidos caracteres vegetativos e reprodutivos consistentes para a delimitação das cinco espécies e, dentre eles, as dimensões e indumento dos folíolos, bractéolas, cálice, vexilo e a adelfia do androceu foram os mais distintivos. Dentre as espécies, M. isadelphum e M. hirtum apresentam a maior abrangência geográfica, enquanto M. eriocarpum é restrita ao sudoeste da América do Sul e M. aculeatum e M. sericiflorum são endêmicas do Brasil. Chave para a identificação das espécies, descrições, ilustrações, distribuição geográfica e habitat são apresentados. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
