Abstract

Saussurea nanzhengensis (Asteraceae), a new species from Bashan Mountain, Central China, is described and illustrated. The new species is similar to S. kungii in its petioles of basal and lower stem leaves winged and leaf blade lyrate lobed, leaf blade adaxially glabrous, phyllary arachnoid and apex distinctly free, but differs by its stem leaf numerous (vs. few or none), basal and lower stem leaves narrowly elliptic (vs. narrowly obovate to elliptic), terminal lobe more than half the length of the blade (vs. less than half the length of the blade), leaf margin entire or subentire (vs. denticulate), leaf blade abaxially usually densely arachnoid lanate (vs. glabrous), capitula numerous (vs. few to numerous), in a paniculate synflorescence (vs. in a corymbiform synflorescence), phyllaries in 6 rows (vs. in 4–5 rows), green with black margin (vs. green), and pappus brown (vs. dirty white).
