Spiradiclis pengshuiensis (Ophiorrhizeae, Rubioideae), a new species from Chongqing, China.

ABSTRACT: Spiradiclis pengshuiensis Bo Pan & R. J. Wang (Rubiaceae) is described as a new species from Chongqing in SW China. It is morphologically compared with Spiradiclis pauciflora L. Wu & Q. R. Liu because of their similarities in habit, pubescent surface, small leaf laminas and subglobose capsules. Its conservation status is evaluated as "VU" according to the IUCN categories and criteria.

Lysimachiacoriacea (Primulaceae, Myrsinoideae), a new species from Chongqing, China.

Project description:A new species, Lysimachiacoriacea, from Chongqing, China, is described and illustrated. It is assigned to subgen. Lysimachiasect.Nummulariaser.Paridiformes and resembles L.paridiformisvar.stenophylla, but is characterised by smaller leathery leaves with black glandular striations near the margin. It is also similar to L.nanpingensis in its two to three pairs of leaves sub-whorled at the stem apices, but differs by smaller leathery leaves and densely glandular stem, petiole and pedicel, and calyx lobes with sparse black glandular stripes.

Petrocosmea nanchuanensis (Gesneriaceae), a new species from Chongqing, China.

Project description:A new species, Petrocosmea nanchuanensis Z.Y. Liu, Z.Y. Li & Z.J. Qiu from Mt. Jinfo at Banhe valley of Nanchuan District in Chongqing Municipality (China) is described and illustrated for the first time. Even though this new species is similar to Petrocosmea barbata, it has several significant morphological differences, which includes smaller leaves, repand leaf margin, densely appressed longer pubescences on both surfaces of leaves, larger flower with length of its lower lips about three times longer than that of the upper lips, oblong lower lip lobes, shorter pistil, ovate anthers and styles that are shortly pubescent or approximately glabrous above the middle. The distinct features of P. nanchuanensis and four relative species namely, P. barbata, P. longipedicellata, P. cavaleriei and P. xanthomaculata were also represented in depth. However, P. nanchuanensis is most closely related to P. barbata, based on molecular studies.

Project description:Disporum nanchuanense (Colchicaceae), a new species from Jinfo Mountain National Nature Reserve, Nanchuan District, Chongqing, China, is described and illustrated. It is similar to D. longistylum and D. megalanthum, but differs from the former in its stem branched type, tepals colour and size, stamens and pistil size; and it differs from the latter in inflorescence position, tepals shape, stamens position, pistil position and size. Meanwhile, the new taxon is assessed as Vulnerable (VU D2), according to the IUCN Red List criteria. Furthermore, an identification key to all Chinese species of Disporum is provided.

Two new species of freshwater goby (Teleostei, Gobiidae) from the Upper Youshui River, Chongqing, China.

Project description:Two previously unknown species of Rhinogobius have been discovered in the streams of the Upper Youshui River, within the Yuan River Basin, Xiushan County, Chongqing, China. These new species are named as Rhinogobiussudoccidentalis and Rhinogobiuslithopolychroma. Phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial genomes revealed that R.sudoccidentalis is genetically closest to R.reticulatus, while R.lithopolychroma shares the greatest genetic similarity with R.leavelli. Morphological distinctions allow for the clear differentiation of these species. Rhinogobiussudoccidentalis sp. nov. is characterized by having VI-VII rays in the first dorsal fin and I, 8-9 rays in the second dorsal fin. The longitudinal scale series typically consists of 22-24 scales, while the transverse scale series comprises 7-8 scales. Notably, the predorsal scale series is absent and the total vertebrae count is 12+17=29. Rhinogobiuslithopolychroma sp. nov. can be distinguished from other species by the presence of 13-15 rays on the pectoral fin. Its longitudinal scale series ranges from 30 to 33 scales, with no scales in the predorsal area. The total vertebral count is 30, with 12 precaudal and 18 caudal vertebrae. The head and body of this species are light gray with irregular orange markings on the cheeks and opercle. Through morphological and molecular analyses, it has been confirmed that R.lithopolychroma and R.sudoccidentalis represent novel species within the Rhinogobius genus.

Gastrochilusobovatifolius (Orchidaceae, Aeridinae), a new species from the Daba Mountains of Chongqing, China.

Project description:Gastrochilusobovatifolius, a new species discovered in the Dabashan of northeast Chongqing (China), is described and illustrated. The novelty morphologically resembles G.affinis, G.balangshanensis and G.heminii in having a glabrous and smooth epichile. but can be distinguished by the unique obovate shape of the leaves, smaller epichile, and flower color. The results of molecular phylogenetic analysis, based on nuclear ribosome internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) and four chloroplast DNA fragments (matK, psbA-trnH, psbM-trnD, and trnL-F) of 55 Gastrochilus species, support the inclusion of G.obovatifolius in G.sect.Microphylli, being most closely related to G.balangshanensis from Sichuan. The new species is a trunk epiphyte in evergreen broad-leaved forest.

A new species of Nidirana Dubois, 1992 (Anura, Ranidae) from Chongqing Municipality, China.

Project description:BackgroundThe Nidirana Dubois, 1992 exhibit a ubiquitous presence in East and Southeast Asia, spanning from Japan west to southern China and from northern Thailand to northern Vietnam and Laos in the south. The taxonomic categorisations pertaining to this genus continue to be a subject of debate, particularly with regard to those species that possess broad geographical distributions. In China, 18 species of Nidirana are currently recognised.New informationWe describe a new species of this genus from south-western China. Mitochondrial 16S and COⅠ gene phylogenetic analyses support the new species as an independent clade nested within the Nidirana. The new species is phylogenetically close to N.yaoica, with a genetic distance of 2.5% from its sister taxon. Morphologically, the new species can be distinguished from congeners by a combination of the following characteristics: males relatively small (SVL 41.8-43.3 mm); lateroventral grooves present on both fingers and toes; relative finger length Ⅱ < Ⅰ < Ⅳ < Ⅲ; tibio-tarsal articulation reaching to the level of the eye or nostril; a pair of external subgular vocal sacs in males; one single nuptial pad on the dorsal surface of the base of the first finger in males during the breeding season; webbing formula I 1/2 - 1 II 1/2 - 2 III 1 - 2½ IV 2 - 1V.

Triplophysa wulongensis, a new species of cave-dwelling loach (Teleostei, Nemacheilidae) from Chongqing, Southwest China.

Project description:We describe a new species of cave-dwelling loach, Triplophysa wulongensis sp. nov., based on specimens collected in a subterranean pool in a cave in Wulong County, Chongqing, Southwest China. The pool is connected to the Wujiang River drainage. Triplophysa wulongensis differs from its congeners by the following combination of characters: eyes present, caudal fin with 18 branched rays; posterior chamber of the air bladder degenerate; stomach U-shaped; intestine without bends or loops immediately posterior to stomach; body smooth and scaleless, and lateral line complete. The mitochondrial cytochrome b sequence differs from those of other published sequences of species of Triplophysa by 14.9-24.9% in K2P distance. Phylogenetic analysis based on cytochrome b gene sequences recovered T. wulongensis as sister taxon to all other cave-dwelling species of Triplophysa.
