A new endemic species of from Fujian, China, which was previously identified as , is described and illustrated. In this study, we observed its leaf cross-cut characteristics under a microscope and spore morphology characteristics under a scanning electron microscope, counted its chromosome number, and compared population genetic differences between this hexaploid and based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) extracted from whole-genome resequencing data. We found that this hexaploid differs from in both leaf morphology and spore ornamentation, and that the two also exhibit significant differences in population genetics. Based on this comprehensive evidence, we identified the hexaploid as a new species and named it . Here, we formally describe this hexaploid species and provide an identification key to the species reported from China.
描述并图示了一种来自中国福建的新特有物种，该物种先前被鉴定为[某物种]。在本研究中，我们在显微镜下观察了其叶片横切特征，在扫描电子显微镜下观察了孢子形态特征，对其染色体数目进行了计数，并基于从全基因组重测序数据中提取的单核苷酸多态性（SNP）比较了该六倍体与[某物种]之间的群体遗传差异。我们发现该六倍体在叶片形态和孢子纹饰上均与[某物种]不同，且二者在群体遗传学上也表现出显著差异。基于这些综合证据，我们将该六倍体鉴定为一个新物种，并将其命名为[新物种名]。在此，我们正式描述这个六倍体物种，并提供一份中国报道的[某属]物种的鉴定检索表。
