German title:—Zwei neue Tillandsia-Arten aus Cajamarca, Peru

Abstract:—There are still several plants in collections that cannot be named because they do not fit any of the known named and described species. For example there were several imports of Tillandsia from a nursery in Peru, owned by Karel Knize, especially to Germany but also to the Netherlands. Though focussed on cacti, they collected and sold many Tillandsia sp. They were mainly collected by Juan Garcia, who could supply me with information about collecting localities of some of these plants. Unfortunately Juan Garcia died some time ago. Further information can be found in the description of Tillandsia cees-goudae (Gouda 2017). In this article two new species of Tillandsia are described and illustrated.
