(as durikäensis) [epublished]

Remarks

Etymology: The indigenous word Durika is perhaps derived from the Bribri duli “place of the tree of the high slope” or the Cabécar duleka “vertical”, in reference to the steepy mountain. It is named after Cerro Durika at Fundación Reserva Biológica Durika, in southern Talamanca mountain range, where the type plants were collected. doi:10.3989/ajbm.2388
