Abstract
Three new species of the section Polylobium (Eckl. & Zeyh.) Benth. of Lotononis (DC.) Eckl. & Zeyh. are described: L. acocksii B-E. van Wyk, L. nutans B-E. van Wyk and L. purpurescens B-E. van Wyk. Morphologically, these species are intermediate between L. umbellata (L.) Benth. and species of the section Aulacinthus (E. Mey.) Benth. The new species are all known only from the type localities in the south-western and southern Cape.
