﻿AbstractWe report the rediscovery ofRubuspendulusRusby, “Mora India”, described in 1933 from Colombia and not mentioned again until the present study. We also update its distribution with eight new localities in Colombia, seven in Ecuador and one in Peru, being a new record for the flora of the latter two countries. This is the first time thatR.pendulus’ stipules and flowers are found and detailed through a botanical description, illustrations and photographs.Rubuspendulusis morphologically differentiated fromR.bogotensisBenth.,R.mollifronsFocke,R.porphyromallosFocke andR.urticifoliusPoir., with whom it was previously confused and we give a brief explanation on the type specimen status ofR.mollifronsandR.porphyromallos.
