Gochnatia lanceolata was described on the basis of two collections: the type ( Carolina 01 ) from Peru and a paratype ( Torrico & Peca 336 ) from Bolivia. The morphological characters analyzed here (e.g., style branches, apical anther appendages, phyllaries, pollen, and leaf anatomy) show that these specimens belong to different taxa. A new combination in Chucoa ( Chucoa lanceolata ) is proposed for the type collection from Peru. A new species, Gochnatia angustifolia , is described on the basis of the paratype from Bolivia.
