Abstract:

Sorbus gongshanensis sp. nov., a new species from the Hengduan Mountains China, is described and illustrated. It is similar to S. kurzii from China (Yunnan & Xizang), Nepal, and Sikkim in the size of the leaflets, glabrous veins, persistent (sometimes) herbaceous stipules and reddish brown villous inflorescences and red fruits, but differs in its serrate leaflet margins toothed in the distal half or often almost to their base, reddish brown villous to glabrous hypanthium and reddish brown villous infructescences, among other characteristics.

Abstract:

In many ways, it is presumptuous for me to speak on the mosses of the tropical regions of China. Many consider the knowledge about the taxonomy, ecology, and geography of tropical bryophytes inadequate (Pócs 1982; Schuster 1983; Richards 1984), and this is certainly the case for the bryophytes of the tropical regions of China. The taxonomy of Chinese taxa is generally in a state of disarray. Early workers, both Chinese and others, have tended to describe new species based upon minor or inconsequential morphological characters and without apparent reference to related taxa found outside of China. This is clear from recent monographic studies that compared Chinese taxa with taxa throughout the world. For example, Su (1988) in his studies of Homaliodendron reduced the taxa of this genus for southeast Asia from over eighteen to four. Similar synonymizing has occurred in Forsstroemia (Stark 1987), Mniaceae (Koponen 1981), Grimmia and Schistidum (Cao & Vitt 1986) and the Calymperaceae (Lin & Reese 1989). Furthermore, monographers of groups have not always been able to study adequate collections from China as for example, Noguchi’s (1976) revision of the Meteoriaceae or Nyholm’s (1971) studies on the genus Atrichum. Even recent monographic or revisionary studies such as those on Leucodon (Akiyama 1988), Trachyloma (Miller & Manuel 1982), Glossadelphus (Tixier 1988), Entodon (Hu 1983), Ctenidium (Nishimura 1985), Forsstroemia (Stark 1987), Gollania (Higuchi 1985) or Fissidens (Li 1985) appear to have had only those collections from China for study that were available in herbaria outside of China. The cause for this probably rests with the difficulty of borrowing material from Chinese herbaria. Even when specimens are loaned by Chinese herbaria the borrower gets only a small sample of what may be present. Herbaria I have visited in China have huge backlogs of unprocessed or unidentified collections. In many cases these collections come from significant regions such as western Sichuan, Yunnan and the tropical regions of Xizang (Tibet).

Abstract:

Continuing prior studies on Chinese Sphecodes, we here report further records of twelve rarely collected and little known species from mountainous regions of Southern and South-Western China (Xizang, Sichuan, Yunnan). Forty two species are currently known from China, yet until now only two species were known from Southern and South-Western China. We report six entirely new records for China, including Sphecodes discoverlifei Astafurova & Proshchalykin, 2020, S. fumipennis Smith, 1853, S. montanus Smith, 1879, S. nipponicus Yasumatsu & Hirashima, 1951, S. simlaensis Blüthgen, 1924, and S. turneri Cockerell, 1916, and another four are new regional records. Two are new species that we describe and illustrate: Sphecodes holgeri Astafurova & Proshchalykin, sp. nov. (Yunnan), and S. tibeticus Astafurova & Niu, sp. nov. (Xizang). The male of Sphecodes sikkimensis Blüthgen, 1927 is described for the first time.

Abstract:

<i>Arundinella mainlingensis</i> (Poaceae), a new species from Xizang, China is described and illustrated. This new species forms a sister group relationship with <i>A. yunnanensis</i> on the molecular phylogenetic tree, sharing common morphological characteristics such as ligule extremely short, glumes glabrous and 4−5 mm long and lemma with an apical awn. <i>Arundinella mainlingensis</i> differs from <i>A. yunnanensis</i> in having stems with 3 or 4 nodes, clustered basal leaves, densely covered with tubercle-based hairs on the margins and the adaxial surface, less cauline leaves and lower florets that are male or neuter with short anthers about 1.2 mm long. <i>Arundinella mainlingensis</i> is primarily found in south-eastern Xizang, including Nyingchi, Mainling and Bomê, whereas <i>A. yunnanensis</i> is only observed in Gongshan, Yunnan. These differences further reinforce the classification of the two as distinct species.

Abstract:

The Hirtodrosophila melanderi species group contains nine known species recorded from either the Old or the New World. All these species were thought to be strict fungivorous drosophilids. In the present study, we give supplementary descriptions for three of these known species, all recorded from Yunnan, southwestern China, H. furcapenis, H. furcapenisoides, and H. longifurcapenis, by examining respective type specimen(s). We then describe four new species of the same group, H. seticlasper Katoh & Gao, sp. nov., H. spinicerca Katoh & Gao, sp. nov., H. serratifurcapenis Katoh & Gao, sp. nov., and H. truncifurca Katoh & Gao, sp. nov., all discovered recently from high altitudes (ca. 3,500 to 3,800 m a.s.l.) in Tibet (Xizang), southwestern China. The delimitation of these new species is firstly performed in light of morphology and further with the aid of DNA sequences of the mitochondrial COI (cytochrome c oxydase, subunits I) gene. In addition, a key to all the species of the species group is provided.

Abstract:

New data on the <i>Pselaphodes</i> complex of genera (Pselaphitae: Tyrini) from China is presented. The generic limits of <i>Labomimus</i> Sharp and <i>Pselaphodes</i> Westwood are discussed and expanded. A revised key to the genera of the<i> Pselaphodes</i> complex is provided. New geographic evidence suggests that previously believed wide-spread species <i>Pselaphodes tianmuensis</i> Yin, Li & Zhao contains a number of related species, resulting in a division of the species to nine separate taxa. Fourteen new species belonging to three genera are diagnosed, described and illustrated: <i>Dayao emeiensis</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n</b>. (Sichuan), <i>Labomimus</i> <i>fimbriatus</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Yunnan), <i>L.</i> <i>jizuensis</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Yunnan), <i>L</i>.<i> simplicipalpus</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Sichuan), <i>Pselaphodes anhuianus</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Anhui), <i>P. daii</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Sichuan), <i>P. grebennikovi</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Yunnan), <i>P. hainanensis</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Hainan), <i>P. kuankuoshuiensis</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Guizhou), <i>P. longilobus</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Hunbei, Yunnan), <i>P. monoceros</i> Yin & Hlaváč, <b>sp. n.</b> (Xizang), <i>P. pengi</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Sichuan), <i>P. tiantongensis</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Zhejiang) and <i>P. wrasei</i> Yin & Li, <b>sp. n.</b> (Yunnan). <i>Labomimus sichuanicus</i> Hlaváč, Nomura & Zhou (Sichuan) is redescribed and illustrated based on a paratype and the material from the type locality. Two recently described species, <i>Pselaphodes</i> <i>tibialis</i> Yin & Li (Yunnan), and <i>P. venustus</i> Yin & Li (Yunnan), are transferred to <i>Labomimus</i> (<b>comb. n.</b>) due to the presence of a median metaventral fovea. New locality data is provided for <i>P. aculeus </i>Yin, Li & Zhao (Anhui, Fujian, Guangxi, Hainan, Yunnan), <i>P. maoershanus</i> Yin & Li (Guangxi, Guizhou), <i>P. tianmuensis</i> (Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangxi) and <i>P. pectinatus</i> Yin, Li & Zhao (Hainan), with the aedeagus newly illustrated for the latter species.

Abstract:

Taxonomy and species boundaries within the Rhacophorus rhodopus and Rhacophorus bipunctatus complexes are very confusing. In this study, we attempt to delimit the species boundaries and test the currently accepted taxonomic assignments within these two complexes based on newly collected samples and previously published data across their distributions. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that the R. rhodopus and R. bipunctatus complexes consisted of six distinct clades (labeled A‒F) that diverged from each other by genetic distances (p-distance) ranging from 5.3% to 9.2% in 16S rRNA sequences, and accordingly analyses of species delimitation placed them into six species, of which three correspond to known species (R. rhodopus, R. bipunctatus, and R. napoensis) and three represent different cryptic species. Rhacophorus rhodopus (Clade C) is distributed in southern Yunnan, China, northern Laos, and northern and central Thailand; R. bipunctatus (Clade F) is distributed in northeastern India and western and northern Myanmar; and R. napoensis (Clade B) is distributed in Guangxi, China and northern Vietnam. Based on both molecular and morphological evidence, we described the clade consisting of samples from Hainan, China and central Vietnam (Clade A) as a new species, Rhacophorus qiongicasp. nov. There are two cryptic species requiring additional morphological studies: one only contains samples from Motuo, Xizang, China (Clade E), and the other is distributed in western Yunnan, China, central Myanmar, central Thailand, and Malaysia (Clade D). Additionally, our results supported the idea that some old GenBank sequences of R. reinwardtii need to be updated with the correct species name.

Abstract:

The tropical areas in southern and south-western Yunnan are rich in fungal diversity. Additionally, the diversity of seed flora in Yunnan Province is higher than in other regions in China and the abundant endemic species of woody plants provide favourable substrates for fungi. Rubber plantations in Yunnan Province are distributed over a large area, especially in Xishuangbanna. During a survey of rubber-associated fungi in Yunnan Province, China, dead rubber branches with fungal fruiting bodies were collected. Morphological characteristics and multigene phylogenetic analyses (ITS, LSU, SSU, <i>rpb</i>2 and <i>tef</i>1-α) revealed four distinct new species, described herein as <i>Melomastia puerensis</i>, <i>Nigrograna lincangensis</i>, <i>Pseudochaetosphaeronema lincangensis</i> and <i>Pseudochaetosphaeronema xishuangbannaensis</i>. Detailed descriptions, illustrations and phylogenetic trees are provided to show the taxonomic placements of these new species.

Within the series, it appeared somewhat close to both <i>L. lamarum</i> and <i>L. pseudolamarum</i>. However, <i>L. lushuiensis</i> can be easily distinguished from the latter two species by, among other characters, the leaf margin, bract size, involucre shape and size, and number and width of ray florets. Morphologically, <i>L. lushuiensis</i> is also superficially similar to <i>L. secunda</i> but differs readily by having distally shortly yellowish and brownish puberulent stems, palmately-pinnately veined leaves regularly dentate at margin, scarious, brown and larger bracts, and larger ray laminae. In addition, a distribution map and a diagnostic key to Chinese species of L. ser. Ligularia are also provided.

H. stenopterum shares some morphological similarities with the narrowly endemic H. incurvatum and H. lushuiensis. However, H. stenopterum is easily distinguished by its oblanceolate lateral wing of winged mericarp, 10 to 12 calyx glands, and branchlets densely rusty tomentose. The new species status is also supported by molecular phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear ribosome internal transcribed spacer (nrITS), which showed distinct systematic boundaries from the most morphologically similar species, H. incurvatum and their morphological relatives, H. lushuiensis.

Abstract:

During research in the late 1990s on the account of Brassicaceae for the flora of China (Zhou et al., 2001), the present author examined thousands of specimens from the major herbaria richest in Chinese plants, including A, B, BM, E, GH, IBSC, K, KUN, LE, NAS, P, PE, S, US, W, and WU. As a result, several novelties were described (e.g., Al-Shehbaz & Yang, 1998, 2000; Al-Shehbaz et al., 2000a–c). A few others were represented by incomplete material and remained undescribed with the hope of re-collecting them in southwestern and western China, including Sichuan and Yunnan provinces and Xinjiang and Xizang (Tibet) autonomous regions. Among such incomplete material is a collection by Victor Jacquemont from western Tibet [as India] with a few late-season aborted flowers. The plants are easily identified to the genus Christolea Cambessedes in Jacquemont (1844: 17, t. 17) using the Flora of China (Zhou et al., 2001) and Flora Pan-Himalaya (Al-Shehbaz, 2015). However, a close comparison of with the generic type, C. crassifolia Cambess., and the more recently recognized C. niyaensis An (1995: 376), shows that it differs from them in many significant ways (see below) that support its recognition as a novelty despite lacking normal flowers. Unfortunately, no additional collections of the species are known.

Abstract:

The diversity of liverworts in China is rich. It is of great significance to study the species distribution pattern of liverworts in China for the protection of liverworts diversity, flora research and biodiversity monitoring. On the basis of records from national and provincial liverwort lists, herbaria and online databases, a dataset of liverwort distributions was created to analyze the geographical distribution patterns of liverwort species diversity in China. According to the taxonomy of liverwort species in the CoLChina database, more than 60,000 distribution records of 34 provincial geographic units were standardized. ArcGIS 10.8 was used to map the overall richness of liverwort species, as were the individual maps of 14 taxonomic groups of liverworts. Southwest China presented very high species richness, followed by Central China and South China, which presented relatively high species richness. The centers of liverwort species diversity in China are highly consistent with the diversity centers of endemic liverwort in China, many sites from coastal areas to Mountains. The specific distribution centers include the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Hengduan Mountain Range, coastal areas in southern China and Taiwan Mountain Range, as well as the Qinling Mountains and Taihang Mountains in the central region and the Changbai Mountains and Xiaoxing’an Mountains in northeast China. There was significant difference in the distribution patterns of liverwort groups among the different provincial regions in China. As large groups, Jungermanniales and Porellales are absolutely dominant, their distribution patterns are similar to the overall richness of liverwort. The distribution center of Jungermanniales is punctate, while the distribution center of Porellales is flaky. However, the diversity centers of the small and medium liverwort groups are abundant, and their distribution patterns are also significantly different, such as, Marchantiales and Metzgeriales are medium-sized taxa. There were five types of small groups. This study will help us record and understand the biogeographic patterns of liverwort, clarify the geographical distribution of the major phylogenetic groups (order) of liverwort, and analyze the geographical distribution of national endemic and provincial endemic liverworts in China, providing a theoretical basis for future assessments of conservation gaps and reasonable conservation actions for liverworts.
