Dioscorea ancachsensis

Dioscorea ancachsensis is a herbaceous plant in the genus "Dioscorea" that is native to Peru. It is uncertain if these specimens are mature, but they are distinct from most specimens of most "Dioscorea" species in that they are approximately 5 cm across. One such specimen, collected from an open hillside in Cuzco, includes foliage, flowers, and a tuber and is approximately 4 by 5 cm when pressed.
