🌿 Transcriptomic data from seven species of Amomum - a taxonomically challenging genus within the ginger family - have been analysed from Peninsular Malaysia: doi.org/10.3897/phytokeys.276.192768
🌿 A rare endemic fern species, Diplazium velutinum, has been rediscovered in the Cameron Highlands of Peninsular Malaysia during floristic surveys in 2018, representing the first documented collection in over 30 years: doi.org/10.3897/phytokeys.276.197738
🌿 A moss species known as Fissidens pokhrensis has been recorded in China for the first time, discovered growing at the base of a tree in Yunnan Province - one of the most species-rich moss genera in the country.

🌿 A new species of moss, Timmia sanjiangyuanensis, has been discovered in the Sanjiangyuan Region of China.
🔬 The following study also establishes a new taxonomic section to accommodate it, alongside an updated identification key for Chinese Timmia species: doi.org/10.3897/phytokeys.276.176402
Meet Primula xingyiensis, a newly described primrose species from Guizhou, China. Characterised by its delicate habit, small hairy leaves, and homostylous flowers, this find expands the known diversity of the unique Carolinella section: doi.org/10.3897/phyt...
Oreocharis fulvovillosa, a new species of Gesneriaceae, has recently been described and illustrated. This new species has only been discovered on the rock walls of an isolated karst hill at its type locality in Mang City, western Yunnan, China!
