This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Carrión, Juan F., Cordeiro, Inês, Amorim, André M. (2019): A New Bernardia (Euphorbiaceae) with Stellate Trichomes from the Brazilian Cerrado. Systematic Botany (Basel, Switzerland) 44 (4): 826-831, DOI: 10.1600/036364419X15710776741431, URL: doi.org/10.1600/036364419x15710776741431 Abstract — A new species of Bernardia with stellate trichomes from the Brazilian Cerrado is described and illustrated.

Bernardia allemii is most similar to B. gardneri, but differs by its multi-stemmed, subshrub habit, broader leaf blades, tomentose old branches, staminate bracteoles that are usually reniform to flabellate, and larger sepals and bracts in the pistillate flowers. Photographs, a distribution map, information about the conservation status of the new species, and a key to the species with stellate trichomes in Brazil are also provided.
