Ayapana stenolepis

Ayapana stenolepis is a member of the Asteraceae family, a large and diverse group of flowering plants. The species is distributed across three South and Central American countries: Brazil, Bolivia, and Panama. It was formally published in 1975 by R.M. King and H.Rob., who reclassified it from its original authorship by Steetz. The genus Ayapana includes several species primarily found in the Neotropical region. The species name 'stenolepis' likely refers to the narrow leaves characteristic of the plant. No further detailed ecological or morphological information is provided in the source data.
