Abstract
En 中文
Agapetes wenpeiana Bin Yang & Y.H.Tan and Agapetes mingyuaniana H.B.Ding, Bin Yang & Y.H.Tan, two new species of Ericaceae from Yingjiang County, western Yunnan Province, China, are described and illustrated. Agapetes wenpeiana is morphologically similar to A. putaoensis but differs in having dark red corollas in the late flowering stage, longer corollas and stamens, and anthers without spurs. It is one of only two Chinese Agapetes species possessing dark red corollas and strongly reflexed corolla lobes in the late flowering stage. Agapetes mingyuaniana is morphologically similar to A. variegata but differs in having ridged branchlets, shorter pedicels, longer corollas, stamens and styles, and anthers without spurs. It is unique among Chinese Agapetes species in combining ridged branchlets and corollas longer than 5.5 cm. Detailed descriptions, color plates and notes on these two new species are provided.
