Abstract
Ardisia chimingiana Y.H. Tan & D.L. Quan, sp. nova (Primulaceae) from Yunnan, China, is described and illustrated. It belongs to the subgenus Tinus and has long been misidentified in China as A. solanacea and A. polycephala due to similarities in leaf blades and inflorescences. However, it differs from those two species by having fewer leaf veins, inflorescences with fewer flowers, shorter peduncle, glabrous calyx margin, and fruits not turning black. We discuss the morphological distinctions of A. solanacea and a few other similar species. A lectotype is designated for A. solanacea.
