Abstract

Gastrodia daweishanensis Ying Qin & Yan Liu (Orchidaceae), a new species from Yunnan, China is described. The new species is similar to G. putaoensis X. H. Jin, but differs from the latter by its yellow flowers, perianth tube ventrally distinctly swollen near the base forming a pouch-shaped outgrowth and inner surface of the front half densely pubescent. The detailed information of the new species, including morphological descriptions, illustrations, phenology, etymology and conservation assessment are provided.
