Abstract

Through a detailed study of the original descriptions and type materials, in addition to analyses of the new collected
material, we have established that Aristolochia bridgesii and A. pearcei, entities that have been considered synonyms until
now, correspond to different species, with notoriously different floral morphology and allopatric geographic distributions,
separated in latitude by more than 300 km. Thus, three species are recognized for Chile: A. bridgesii, A. pearcei and A.
chilensis. A complete illustration of A. bridgesii and key for the genus in Chile are provided. In addition, A. bridgesii and
A. pearcei are lectotypified.
