Baorangia albostipitata sp. nov. from India is proposed based on morphological and molecular phylogenetic data. The species is characterized by a pinkish pileus with yellowish pileal margin, whitish pileal context that changes to pale blue very slowly on bruising or cut, yellowish hymenophore without any color change on bruising or cut, whitish stipe that changes to bright orange when bruised, and subglobose to ellipsoid basidiospores. Detailed descriptions, macrophotographs, illustrations and comparisons with similar species are presented.

We describe a new species, Didymocarpus janakiae Rhuthuparna & V.Gowda from the eastern Himalayas of India. We provide a detailed description of the species' morphology, diagnostic characters, and colour photographs to support its classification as a new taxon. The new species shows morphological affinities with D. middletonii Souvann., Soulad. & Tagane, D.cinereus D.Don, and D. punduanus var. pulchrus (C. B. Clarke) Su.Datta & B.K.Sinha. It is similar to D. middletonii in its calyx shape but can be distinguished by its glabrous calyx and glandular hairy corolla (versus calyx sparsely covered with multi‐cellular hairs and glabrous corolla). Similarly, it resembles D. punduanus var. pulchrus and D. cinereus D.Don in the shape and purplish colour of the corolla, but D. janakiae can be distinguished from these two species by its urceolate calyx (versus campanulate), and longer calyx tube (6.7–10.4 mm versus ca 6 mm in D. cinereus and 3–6 mm in D. punduanus var. pulchrus). Currently D. janakiae is only known from its type locality, therefore we assess it as Critically Endangered as per the IUCN guidelines.
我们描述了来自印度喜马拉雅山东部的一个新物种--Didymocarpus janakiae Rhuthuparna & V.Gowda。我们对该物种的形态、诊断特征和彩色照片进行了详细描述，以支持其作为新分类群的分类。新种与 D. middletonii Souvann.、Soulad.middletonii 相似，但可通过其无毛花萼和腺毛花冠区分（花萼疏生多细胞毛，花冠无毛）。pulchrus）和 D. cinereus D.Don 相似，但 D. janakiae 可以通过瓶形花萼（而不是钟状）和较长的萼筒（6.7-10.4 毫米，而 D. cinereus 约为 6 毫米，D. punduanus var. Pulchrus 约为 3-6 毫米）与这两个物种区分开来。目前，我们仅从其模式产地了解到 D. janakiae，因此根据世界自然保护联盟（IUCN）的指导方针，我们将其评定为极危物种。

A new species of Senecio (Asteraceae, Senecioneae), Senecio anjanericus is described and illustrated from the Anjaneri Hills of Nashik district, Maharashtra, India, based on morphological and cytogenetical studies. The species resembles Senecio bombayensis, but differs from it in small size of the ligules, presence of conspicuous foliose supplementary bracts and dense indumentum on stem. The somatic chromosome number was observed to be 2n = 2x = 20, with all the chromosomes exhibiting median region centromeres. A detailed morphological description, illustration and karyotypic features of the new species are provided.

Ophiorrhiza paralatiflora, a new species of Rubiaceae from limestone areas of Guangxi, China, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to O. alatiflora, but differs from the latter by having an inflorescence that is erect from the youngest developmental stage (versus initially drooping then gradually erect), subulate bract (versus linear or linear‐lanceolate) absent or shorter than 3 mm (versus obvious, 5–15 mm long). It also resembles O. cantonensis, but can be distinguished from the latter by the same characters as from O. alatiflora, plus by having a corolla tube with ca 1 mm (versus 0.3 mm) wide wings outside along its entire length (versus from near apex to the middle part). The conservation status was assessed as ‘Least Concern' (LC) according to the IUCN Red List categories and criteria.

Peperomia (Piperaceae) is a pantropical genus comprising approximately 1700 species, primarily found in the Neotropics. The species are rupicolous, epiphytic, or terrestrial herbs that inhabit humid areas and, occasionally rupestrian fields. In this study, three new species of Peperomia, namely P. ilheusensis, P. itaimbense, and P. mendanhensis, belonging to the subgenus Multipalmata, are described from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. The descriptions include detailed information, illustrations, distribution maps, and an identification key to species of P. subgen. Multipalmata in Brazil.

Climate change is anticipated to pose a significant danger to the habitats and spatial distribution of species in the Mediterranean region throughout the present century. The primary objective of this study was to predict the future geographic range of Liquidambar orientalis, commonly known as the oriental sweetgum under different climate change scenarios. This species is a relict riparian Mediterranean plant originating from the southwestern Anatolia region and Rhodos Island in Greece. To gain insights into the potential effects of climate change on the range of L. orientalis in the future, I used an ensemble modeling approach of species distribution models based on the shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP1‐2.6 and SSP5‐8.5 for the years 2035, 2055 and 2070). The models suggested that the level of precipitation during the wettest month has a crucial role in determining the occurrence of the oriental sweetgum tree. Future projections indicate that the oriental sweetgum will significantly contract its native distribution range due to warming and declining precipitation levels. The population of L. orientalis has previously undergone a decrease as a result of anthropogenic activity. Therefore, it is imperative to augment the degree of urgency in conservation endeavors for the oriental sweetgum species against the ramifications of human‐induced actions and the persistent effects of climate change.
