Cohen, D. H. & A. Maza. 2019. The first collection of Pinnasa volubilis (Loasaceae) for the Flora of Argentina. Darwiniana, nueva serie 7(2): 330-334.

Plants of Pinnasa (Loasaceae) are vining or rosette-forming perennial herbs distributed across the southern Andes and Patagonian Steppe. Three species were formerly cited for Argentina. We report a fourth species, P. volubilis, until now known only from southern Chile, for the first time from Neuquén province. A description of the species, together with photos, a distribution map, and a key for Pinnasa species in Argentina are here provided.
