            <p> Yushania tongpeii D.Z.Li, Y.X.Zhang &amp; E.D.Liu sp. nov. Figures 1, 2 </p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> Yushania tongpeii is morphologically similar to  Y. oblonga ,  Y. pingshanensis and  Y. straminea , but can be easily distinguished by having taller branching from nodes 1-2 m above the ground, sparse purple spots on the internode, densely purple spotted culm sheaths, glabrous margins of culm sheaths and tomentose leaf ligules. </p>
            <p>Type.</p>
            <p>CHINA. Yunnan: Daguan County, Wumengshan National Nature Reserve, Sanjiangkou, 28°13'16"N, 103°54'1"E, 2260 m alt., 29 September 2018, Y.X. Zhang et al. 18180 (holotype: KUN!; isotype: KUN!).</p>
            <p>Description.</p>
            <p> Rhizomes pachymorph, rhizome neck 17-41 cm long, 0.4-0.6 cm in diameter, solid. Culms 2-5 m tall, 0.8-1.5 cm in diameter; internodes terete, 15-38 cm long, initially sparsely purple-spotted, thinly white powdery, densely below nodes, glabrous; culm wall 2-4 mm thick; nodes inconspicuous; sheath scar prominent, with persistent remains of sheath base. Branching from nodes 1-2 m above the ground, branches usually 3, the base appressed to the culm. Culm sheaths tardily deciduous, oblong, leathery, 1/3 to 1/2 as long as internodes, densely purple-spotted, sparsely setose or glabrous abaxially, margins glabrous; auricles narrowly falcate; oral setae radiate; ligules 1-3 mm tall, truncate, margins entire or shallowly serrate; blades erect or recurved, lanceolate. Foliage leaves 3-5 per ultimate branch, sometimes a slender branchlet with 3-5 foliage leaves extending from the apex of the ultimate branch; sheaths initially sparsely setose and white powdery, glabrescent, green or purple, margins glabrous; auricles narrowly falcate, deciduous; oral setae several, radiate, deciduous; ligules truncate or a little arched, 2-3 mm tall, tomentose abaxially; petiole puberulous, initially white powdery; blades 9.5-21  × 1.2-3 cm, shallowly wavy when dry, glabrous, glaucous abaxially, secondary veins 4-6 pairs, transverse veins conspicuous, apex tapering, margins serrate. Inflorescence unknown. </p>
            <p>Phenology.</p>
            <p>New shoots May to July.</p>
            <p>Distribution and habitat.</p>
            <p> This new species is only found in Daguan County, north-eastern Yunnan, China. It occurs above the upper limit of distribution of  Chimonobambusa tumidissinoda Hsueh&amp;T.P.Yi ex Ohrnberger in this area, and grows under the evergreen broadleaved forests at an altitude between 2200-2400 m. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The specific epithet refers to Professor Tong-Pei Yi (1933-2016), who made great contributions to the taxonomy of the alpine bamboos (particularly in  Fargesia Franchet and  Yushania P.C. Keng) in China. </p>
