| Abstract | Phlogacanthus xanthophyllus, a new species from Yunnan, China, is described and illustrated. This new species resembles P. pyramidalis, but can be distinguished by its leaf blade with grayish white patches and corolla yellowish green with dark brown to yellow patches. The new species is currently known from three populations growing under the limestone forests and is assessed as 'Data Deficient' (DD) according to the IUCN red list categories and criteria. A key to all Phlogacanthus species in China is included. |
