Abstract
Populations of an unknown taxon of Gentiana sect. Calathianae have been found in the Brenta Group during floristic surveys. Comparison with morphologically similar taxa (G. terglouensis, G. bavarica, G. orbicularis) revealed that they represent a species new to science, which is described as G. brentae. Data on its ecology and local distribution are reported.
