Abstract
Manglietia kaifui Q.W. Zeng & X. M. Hu, a new species of Manglieta Bl. (Magnoliaceae) from Yunnan, China, is described and illustrated. The new species was found growing only in the monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forests at 1300–2000 m of Mount Huanglianshan, Luchun County, Yunnan Province, China. Notes are also presented on the phenology, pollen morphology and conservation status of the new species. It is closely related to M. fordiana Oliv. and M. hainanensis Dandy, but differs from its closest allies by its glabrous twigs, glabrous upper and lower surfaces of leaves, more tepals (12–20) and more carpels (75–90).
