A new species of Gesneriaceae, Primulina porphyrea, is described and illustrated from southern Hunan, China. The new species resembles P. polycephala and P. yangshuoensis in leaf blade shape and indumentum of the plants, but it can be easily distinguished by having long petiole and purple leaf abaxial surface, purple corolla lobes and yellow corolla tube with several reddish-purple stripes, dark yellow filaments, and 3 staminodes. It flowers from May to August.

Salvia luteistriata, a new species from northeastern Sichuan, China, is described and illustrated here. The new species morphologically resembles S. maximowicziana, but it can be easily distinguished from the latter by having bigger maroon corolla with showy creamy-yellow vertical stripes in the internal ventral surface of corolla tube. Other diagnostic characters between them include that the new species has bigger leaf blade, longer bract and pedicel, bigger oblong upper corolla lip, and bigger mericarp. An identification key for the species in Salvia ser. Maximowiczianae, including S. luteistriata, is provided.

A New Species

A new species of Lippia endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest is described and illustrated. Lippia diversifolia is currently known from the inselbergs of Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro and is characterized by markedly tetragonal branches, of which the opposed sides are densely strigose and the other glabrescent, with indument alternating in the subsequent internode, leaf blade cartaceous to coriaceous, adaxial surface strigose, abaxial surface tomentose or strigose, peduncle 3.5–9 cm long, bracts strigose with apex acute, inconspicuous calyx, and white sessile glands along the whole plant. We provide field photographs, distribution map, conservation status and a table with the main characters that distinguish it from Lippia rubella, which is a morphologically similar species.

ABSTRACT Caraipa andina from La Fundación, in the western Andes of Venezuela (Táchira State) is described, illustrated, and its morphological relationship with an allied species is discussed. This new species is morphologically related to C. heterocarpa Ducke, but it differs by the leaf blade shape, size, and dense abaxial papillae; fewerflowered inflorescence; and shorter pedicel, flower buds, petals, and filaments. Phytogeographical information about the La Fundación area is presented. This species represents the first report of this genus in the Venezuelan Andes.

Abstract A new species of Ipomoea, thus far endemic to Caatinga domain, is described. The species occurs in a “carrasco” physiognomy - a shrubby vegetation on sandy soils characterized by the presence of cacti and bromeliads. The new species can be recognized by a combination of morphological characters, including a leaf blade with a lanate abaxial surface with long hairs, and sepals lanceolate, acuminate, tomentose, and smooth. A complete description, diagnosis, an identification key for Ipomoea species from the Ibiapaba plateau, illustrations, conservation assessments, a distribution map, and taxonomic comments are provided.

Loxostigma puhoatense N.D. Do et al., sp. nov., a new species of Gesneriaceae, is described and illustrated from Pu Hoat Nature Reserve, Nghe An Province, Vietnam. This species is morphologically similar to L. dongxingensis and L. damingshanensis in the plant habit, indumentum system of vegetative and reproductive characters, shape of leaf blades, calyx, pistil but differs from the latter two by the abaxially reddish-purple leaf blade with pubescent along veins, lateral veins 11–19, shorter white to pale yellowish-white corolla (3.7–3.8 cm long) with purple-spotted and glabrous inside, longer abaxial stamens in 2–2.1 cm, shorter and densely glandular-puberulent ovary in 1–1.2 cm, and sparsely glandular-puberulent style. Data on distribution, ecology, phenology, and vernacular of the new species are provided.

Lasianthus yalaensis Napiroon, Duangjai & Poopath is described and illustrated with notes on its conservation, and phylogenetic placement. The new species is morphologically similar to L. pilosus from which it differs in: its strigose branches (vs pilose), leaf blade 5–8 × 2–2.5 cm (vs 10–12.5 cm), 7–8 pairs of nerves (vs 9–15), stipules 5–7 mm long (vs <3 mm) and lanceolate (vs triangular-lanceolate), bracts 4–10 mm long (vs 4–5 mm) and covered with strigose hairs (vs pilose), flowers with cupular calyx (vs tubular), the lobes five and lanceolate (vs 5–7 and lanceolate-linear), corolla tube hirsute external surface (vs pilose) and glabrous internal surface (vs puberulous), drupes crowned by five calyx lobes (vs six), the lobes 1 mm long and strigose (vs 3 mm and pilose). Molecular analysis based on nuclear and plastid markers revealed that L. yalaensis is nested within the Asian clade and is closely related to L. pilosus.
