What is Integrative taxonomy led to recognising Clusia reginae (Clusiaceae), a new tree species from the Venezuelan Andes about?
## Summary __Clusia reginae__ (Clusiaceae) is described using an integrative taxonomy approach. Field observations, discriminant analyses of morphological characters and phylogenetic inference based on molecular data led to the recognition of a new species of tree. This new taxon is distinct for having broadly obovate leaves, white petals, bright yellow flower resin and relatively large fruits. __Clusia reginae__ is known from the foothills and valleys of the Venezuelan Andes and is here assessed using IUCN criteria as Vulnerable.
