| Summary: | <p>Two Jasminum taxa i.e. <em>J. hongshuihoense</em> and <em>Jasminum laurifolium var. brachylobum</em> are reported as a new record for the flora of Vietnam. <em>J. hongshuihoense</em> was hitherto known as endemic to China. It differs from the closely related species <em>J. eberhardtii</em> in having more number (4-10) of primary veins and lesser (5-8) calyx lobes. <em>J</em><em>.</em><em> laurifolium</em> var. <em>brachylobum</em> is closely allied to <em>J</em><em>.</em><em> laurifolium</em> var.<em> laurifolium</em> but it differs in having more flowers in cymes (i.e.1-8) flowers and calyx lobes (i.e. 6-10). Description and color photographs are provided for species identification. Furthermore, a comparison of the diagnostic characters with those of related species is made.</p> |
