}}Psittacanthus brasiliensis is a species of neotropical mistletoe in the Loranthaceae family, which is endemic to Brazil.[4]DescriptionPsittacanthus brasiliensis has pendulous branches, which are circular in cross-section.[ The leaves are opposite and petiolate, with the leaf base being acute and the apex obtuse.][ The position of the inflorescence is terminal and forms an umbel of triads on peduncles.][ Their colour is red and they have a straight style]DistribrutionIt occurs in the south-east of Brazil (Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo). HabitatIt grows in Atlantic forest and rain-forest. TaxonomyPsittacanthus brasiliensis was first described by Desrousseaux in 1792 as Loranthus brasiliensis,[13][14] and in 1834, Don assigned it to the new genus Psittacanthus.[1][2]EtymologyPsittacanthos comes from the Greek psittakos (parrot), and the Greek anthos (flower), possibly chosen, according to Don[2], because of the bright colours. The specific epithet, brasiliensis, is the Latin for of Brazil (genitive singular case).[18]References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idPlantNameSearch.do?id=551345-1|title=IPNI: Psittacanthus brasiliensis|publisher=International Plant Names Index|accessdate=25 May 2018}}
