Abstract

Eight new species of Croton (Euphorbiaceac) from North-eastem and Central Argentina are described and illustrated: C. catamarcensis, C. cordobensis, C. eskuchei, C. laureltyanus, C. multirameus, C. ruderalis, C. tatacuensis and C. troncosoi. The distribution of the new species and their infrageneric position is discussed, according to the sections proposed by Webster (1993).
