New taxa, new combinations, and notes on Chinese Gesneriaceae

Preparation of the Gesneriaceae for the Flora of China has revealed new taxa, including one new genus, Paraisometrum; thirteen new spe- cies, Chirita atroglandulosa, C. napoensis, C. pun- gentisepala, C. pycnantha, C. shouchengensis, C. shuii, C. skogiana, C. wangiana, Didymocarpus subpalmatinervis, Hemiboea wangiana, Opithandra burttii, Oreocharis dentata, Paraisometrum mi- leense; and seven new combinations, Chirita de- missa, Hemiboea subcapitata var. guangdongensis, Lysionotus microphyllus var. omeiensis, Lysionotus paucflorus var. ikedae, Oreocharis aurea var. cor- dato-ovata, Paraboea glutinosa, and Tengia scopu- lorum var. potiflora. The new taxa are described, discussed, and compared with related taxa. The transfer and status changes are justified.
