, a new species of Gesneriaceae in a sclerophyllous oak community from Yunnan, Southwest China, is described and illustrated. Morphologically, it resembles both and , while it is distinct in combined characters of wrinkled leaves, peduncle and pedicel covered with whitish and egladular villous hairs, bract lanceolate and nearly glabrescent adaxially, and staminode absent. Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and chloroplast DNA fragment () of 61 congeneric species also supported as a new species while it was nested with . It was currently assessed as 'Critically Endangered' (CR) regarding to its small-sized population and narrow distribution following the IUCN categories and criteria.
描述并图示了中国西南部云南硬叶栎群落中发现的苦苣苔科一新物种。在形态上,它与[物种A]和[物种B]都有相似之处,但在以下综合特征上有所不同:叶片具皱纹,花梗和花柄被白色无腺体的长柔毛,苞片披针形且正面近无毛,无退化雄蕊。基于61个同属物种的核糖体内部转录间隔区(ITS)和叶绿体DNA片段([具体片段名称])的分子系统发育分析也支持[该物种]为新物种,且它嵌套于[某类群]中。根据世界自然保护联盟(IUCN)的分类和标准,鉴于其种群规模小且分布范围狭窄,目前被评估为“极危”(CR)。
