K.Huang & Z.X.Fu, , a new species of Balsaminaceae from Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China, is described and illustrated. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of is 152,104 bp in length. Based on phylogenetic analysis of the complete cp genome, represents a distinct species closely related to Hook.f. The new species can be distinguished from the latter by its unique morphological characteristics: lower sepal gable-boat-shaped (vs. funnel-shaped), spur straight (vs. curved), flower large, ca. 4 cm long (vs. ca. 3 cm long), and seeds ellipsoid with reticulate seed coat ornamentation (vs. oblong, smooth). In addition, a distribution map, a detailed morphological comparison with related species, and an assessment of the conservation status of this newly identified species are provided.
描述并图示了中国四川省眉山市凤仙花科的一个新物种——K. Huang & Z. X. Fu。该物种完整的叶绿体(cp)基因组长度为152,104 bp。基于完整cp基因组的系统发育分析,该物种是与Hook.f.密切相关的一个独特物种。这个新物种可以通过其独特的形态特征与后者区分开来:下唇瓣呈山墙船形(vs.漏斗形),距直(vs.弯曲),花大,约4厘米长(vs.约3厘米长),种子椭圆形,种皮具网状纹饰(vs.长方形,光滑)。此外,还提供了分布图、与相关物种的详细形态比较以及对这个新发现物种保护状况的评估。
