Abstract

, a new mycoheterotrophic species from Fujian Province, China, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to , but its callus of labellum is a less distinctive Y-shape with three auricles on the apex, four pollinia that are narrowly elliptic in shape and equal in size, and it lacks fine roots. The plastome of is highly degraded. Phylogenetic analyses distinguished from its congeners, and , with strong support based on nrITS + and plastomes, respectively.
