Abstract
Ajania flavida, a new species from western Sichuan and eastern Xizang, China, is described and illustrated. It is readily assigned to A. sect. Ajania owing to its straw-colored, glossy involucres and marginally whitish scarious phyllaries. Within the section, it is distinct in being a shrub of 1−2 m in height, and in having creamy yellow florets. It is superficially similar to A. ramosa in A. sect. Phaeoscyphus, but can easily be distinguished by, among other characters, the plant height, color of the florets and margins of the phyllaries. In addition, we provide a distribution map of the new species.
Ajania flavida是产于中国四川西部和西藏东部的一个新种,本文对其进行了描述并绘制了插图。它很容易被归入 A. sect.由于其稻草色、有光泽的总苞和略带白色的干膜质小叶,它很容易被归入 Ajania 科。在科内,它是一种灌木,高 1-2 米,小花呈乳黄色。它表面上与 A. sect.Phaeoscyphus,但很容易通过植株高度、小花颜色和叶片边缘等特征区分开来。此外,我们还提供了新种的分布图。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
