Abstract
Zamia acuminata has remained an obscure, poorly understood species for over a century due to possibly misinterpreted
or erroneous locality data on the unicate sterile type specimen, a very brief protologue description, the misidentification
of the plants from El Valle de Antón in Panama as Z. acuminata, and the erroneous determinations of plants of Z.
acuminata from Costa Rica as Z. fairchildiana. Recently collected material from San José Province in Costa Rica is here
determined to be identical to the single sterile leaf material of the holotype of Zamia acuminata. We consider Z.
acuminata to be a Costa Rican endemic species restricted to the western Talamanca mountain range in San José
Province, and that the Zamia from El Valle de Antón in Panama, which has previously been referred to as Zamia
acuminata, to be a new species, here described as Zamia nana.
