In the present study, we designate lectotypes and epitypes for fourteen names (for accepted names/basionyms/synonyms) of three genera Ammannia, Lagerstroemia, and Rotala of family Lythraceae, to facilitate the correct application of these names. Lectotypes are designated for three names in Ammannia, three names in Rotala, and four names in Lagerstroemia. Second-step lectotype are designated for two names in Rotala and one name in each Ammannia and Lagerstroemia. Further, an epitype for the name Rotala floribunda is assigned.

Clematis armandi var. kiangnanensis (Ranunculaceae) has been previously reduced to the synonymy of C. armandi. Based on literature consultation, specimen survey and observations of living plants in the wild, we demonstrate that C. armandi var. kiangnanensis actually belongs to C. finetiana, a species widely distributed in China. We therefore place C. armandi var. kiangnanensis in synonymy with C. finetiana herein. The geographical distribution of C. finetiana is also further clarified.

During a long career as a botanist in the Herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, United Kingdom, John Gilbert Baker (1834–1920) described one new genus, Kitchingia, in Crassulaceae subfam. Kalanchooideae, and eight species in this genus. He in addition published a new combination in Kitchingia for a species originally published in Kalanchoe. Otto Stapf (1857–1933), Austrian-born Kew botanist, described one new species of Kitchingia, and Alwin Berger (1871–1931), the German-born succulent plant expert, published two new combinations in Kitchingia. The genus Kitchingia was in the past variously upheld in Crassulaceae subfam. Kalanchooideae, but is today recognised in Kalanchoe at the rank of subgenus, as Kalanchoe subg. Kitchingia. The nomenclature and taxonomy of the names published in or transferred to Kitchingia by Baker, Stapf, and Berger are reviewed and discussed in a historical context. Where necessary, the names are typified.

A new and critically endangered species of Phyllanthus, endemic to the Parque Nacional da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, is described and illustrated here. Phyllanthus celatus is placed in Phyllanthus subgenus Phyllanthus section Phyllanthus subsection Phyllanthus. Morphologically it resembles P. augustinii, P. lobatus and P. niruri, but differs mainly by presenting reddish primary, secondary and intersecondary veins on the abaxial surface (vs absent in both species), and 5-lobed pistillate disc (vs entire only in P. augustinii and P. niruri). Of these, only P. lobatus has a lobed disc, but it differs in pistillate sepals light green (vs whitish or slightly pinkish), deeply 5-lobed pistillate glandular disc (vs 3–5-lobed), styles erect (vs curved), and geographic distribution restricted to the Southeast (vs South). The systematic position of this species and its morphological relationships with allies are discussed and field photographs, illustrations, a distribution map, preliminary conservation status, and taxonomic notes are provided.
本文描述了巴西里约热内卢州蒂茹卡国家公园（Parque Nacional da Tijuca）特有的一种极度濒危的新种Phyllanthus。Phyllanthus celatus被归入Phyllanthus亚属Phyllanthus科Phyllanthus亚科Phyllanthus属。从形态上看，它与 P. augustinii、P. lobatus 和 P. niruri 相似，但主要区别在于背面呈现带红色的主脉、次脉和中间脉（而这两个物种均无），以及雌蕊花盘 5 裂（而 P. augustinii 和 P. niruri 只有全裂）。lobatus 的雌蕊萼片为淡绿色（vs 带白色或略带粉红色），雌蕊腺盘深 5 裂（vs 3-5 裂），花柱直立（vs 弯曲），地理分布限于东南部（vs 南部）。本文讨论了本种的系统定位及其与同属植物的形态学关系，并提供了野外照片、插图、分布图、初步保护状况和分类注释。

Three new species of Pitcairnia from Mexico are proposed: P. aleserratoae was found in Guerrero, Morelos, and Puebla; P. gracielae known from the Estado de Mexico and Morelos while P. pugana has been collected in Jalisco. Information on distribution, habitat and phenology is provided for each species. The new taxa are compared with P. jaliscana, P. karwinskyana, P. micheliana, P. palmeri, and P. pteropoda, species morphologically similar.

Synotis carnosifolia (Asteraceae, Senecioneae), a new species from Baoshan in western Yunnan province, China, is described and illustrated. By its habit S. carnosifolia is most closely similar to S. cavaleriei and S. changiana. It differs from S. cavaleriei in its petioles 1–3 cm long, leaf blade elliptical, orbicular or obovate and carnose. It can readily be distinguished from the latter by its leaf blade elliptical, orbicular or obovate, 4–7 × 2–6 cm, carnose in texture, abaxially arachnoid or subglabrous, adaxially glabrous, and blades base rounded. The taxonomic position of the new species within Synotis is also corroborated by evidence from phylogenetic analyses based on ITS and ETS sequence data.
Synotis carnosifolia（菊科，Senecioneae）是产于中国云南省西部保山的一个新种，本文对其进行了描述并绘制了插图。根据其习性，S. carnosifolia 与 S. cavaleriei 和 S. changiana 最为相似。与 S. cavaleriei 不同的是，它的叶柄长 1-3 厘米，叶片椭圆形、圆形或倒卵形，并具肉质。它很容易与后者区分开来，叶片椭圆形、圆形或倒卵形， 4-7 * 2-6 厘米，质地肉质，背面蛛网状或近无毛，正面无毛，叶片基部圆形。基于 ITS 和 ETS 序列数据的系统发育分析也证实了该新种在 Synotis 中的分类地位。

Ophiocordyceps species are found worldwide, with their greatest diversity occurring in tropical and subtropical regions, particularly in Southeast Asia. In June 2020, during a study conducted in Taiwan, stromata associated with dead termite alates (or winged termites) (Odontotermes formosanus) were collected and characterized. This study identified a unique sexual morph, Ophiocordyceps taiwanensis sp. nov., distinguished by its asci and ascospore morphology compared to the majority of Ophiocordyceps species. Our new collection exhibits similarities to O. bispora (≡ Cordycepioideus bisporus), particularly in having asci with two ascospores. However, it differs in the shape of its perithecia, which are subglobose to ovoid, and in possessing smaller, aseptate ascospores. Phylogenetic analysis using various gene combinations in both preliminary and final LSU-ITS-SSU-TEF1-RPB2 sequence alignments revealed that our new isolates form a clade closely related to O. bispora KVL 606, supported by 88% MP/100% ML/1.00 PP BI statistical support. Based on its distinct morphology and phylogenetic placement, we propose O. taiwanensis as a new species, representing the first recorded instance of an Ophiocordyceps species associated with termites in Taiwan.
虫草菌的种类遍布全球，其中以热带和亚热带地区的种类最为丰富，尤其是东南亚地区。2020 年 6 月，在台湾进行的一项研究中，收集了与白蚁尸体（有翅白蚁）（Odontotermes formosanus）相关的基质，并对其进行了特征描述。这项研究发现了一种独特的有性形态--Ophiocordyceps taiwanensis sp.bispora (≡ Cordycepioideus bisporus)相似，尤其是它的无囊孢子有两个。但是，它的外果皮形状不同，为近球形至卵球形，而且具有较小的无隔膜的腹孢子。利用初步和最终 LSU-ITS-SSU-TEF1-RPB2 序列排列中的各种基因组合进行的系统进化分析表明，我们的新分离株与 O. bispora KVL 606 紧密相关，得到 88% MP/100% ML/1.00 PP BI 统计支持。基于其独特的形态和系统发育位置，我们认为 O. taiwanensis 是一个新物种，代表了台湾首次记录的与白蚁相关的蛇尾蕨类物种。
