doi:10.3897/phytokeys.197.84833 Etymology: 'The specific epithet punensis means 'of the Puna' (the word puna derived from Spanish via Quechua, the language of the aboriginal people of that region; Merriam-Webster.com 2022). The epithet highlights the restriction of this new species to the dry Puna biogeographic region'.
