Abstract

After critically checking the type materials, we find that Photinia raupingensis and P. prunifolia var. denticulata are merged into P. prunifolia and are reduced as synonyms. Lectotypes of P. prunifolia (≡P. serrulata var. prunifolia), P. melanostigma, P. consimilis and P. raupingensis have been designated here.
