Psychotria pendens

My first botanical illustration in a published paper 🌱💚

An article describing a new plant species has just been published. Psychotria pendens M. Bautista & R. Bustamante is a new ultramafic species from Central Palawan, Philippines that is currently assessed as Critically Endangered (CR) based on the IUCN Red List categories and criteria.

Many thanks to Sir R.B. Bustamante and Ma'am Mary Ann Bautista for giving me the opportunity to illustrate Psychotria pendens M. Bautista & R. Bustamante.
