            <p> Lectotypus hic designatus: Glaziou 21773 R!, Isolectotypi: K (photo!), P (photo!) . </p>
            <p>Annual herbs or subshrubs; stems terete, branched. Leaves opposite, the basal ones forming a rosette, those along the stem perfoliate, connate or free. Inflorescence lax cymes, disposed in dichasia; peduncles with leafy bracts. Flowers 4-merous, actinomorphic. Calyx tube shorter than the lobes; colleters absent. Corolla infundibuliform to salverform, persistent. Stamens 4, didynamous, inserted at the distal portion of the corolla tube, one pair with short filaments and anthers partly included, the other pair with long filaments and anthers exserted; anthers longitudinally dehiscent, connectives projected, erect after anthesis; pollen in tetrads with reticulate exine. Ovary short-pedunculate, oblong, apically attenuate, unilocular, with two thickened placentae, multiovulate; style filiform, bilobed, included or exserted.</p>
            <p> Distribution and habitat: —  Symphyllophyton is endemic to Brazil, with species known mainly from Cerrado vegetation in the states of Bahia, Goiás, Maranhão, Piauí and Tocantins (Figure 1). </p>

            <p> Notes on  Symphyllophyton biology and conservation </p>
            <p> Symphyllophyton seems to be an unfortunate genus, as it is distributed in the part of Brazil currently suffering from severe agricultural impact, transforming all flat surfaces on the summits of sandstone mesas and surrounding savannas into crop plantations, mostly of soybeans. </p>
            <p> Due to the scarcity of collections (~30 for the entire genus) the environmental preferences of  Symphyllophyton remain poorly known. Our field experience in the states of Goiás and Tocantins indicates that the species in those states are associated with sandstone and more rarely quartzite outcrops, growing in well-drained sandy soils on southward, half shaded slopes. On several distinct sandstone bluffs in Goiás, based on GoogleEarth images, active searches revealed that  Symphyllophyton horologium was present on all southward slopes, but slopes oriented to directions other than south were devoid of populations. Based on the south slope of sandstone bluff premise, a new population of  S. gradatum was located by our team near Lizarda, in the state of Tocantins. </p>
            <p> A bee fly (cf.  Exoprosopa Macquart ,  Bombylidae ), kindly determined by colleagues Dr. Carlos José Einicker Lamas (Museu de Zoologia - USP) and Dr. Neal Evenhuis (Bishop Museum), was the single insect observed and photographed visiting and probably pollinating  S. horologium on Morro do Pequi, Mambaí, Goiás. </p>
