Abstract

Clematis mae Z.Z.Yang & L.Xie, a new species of Ranunculaceae from Xinjiang, China, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to C. orientalis and C. glauca but can be distinguished for being a less hairy plant (hairy in C. orientalis), often 2-ternate leaves (1–2-pinnate for C. orientalis and C. glauca), lanceolate to linear-lanceolate leaflets (elliptic or ovate in C. glauca), larger flowers (smaller flower in C. orientalis) and narrowly lanceolate sepals with acute to slightly attenuate apex (narrowly oblong sepals in C. orientalis and ovate to broadly lanceolate sepals in C. glauca). The new species is endemic to the southern slope of North Tianshan Mountain in Central Xinjiang. The conservation status of the species is also discussed.

Diagnosis: The new species is most similar to C. orientalis L. and C. glauca Willd. and it can be distinguished from the latter two species by the following combinations of characteristics. Plants of the new species are less hairy than C. orientalis and, in this respect, are similar to C. glauca. The leaves of the new species are often 2-ternate, with lanceolate to linear lanceolate leaflets. Its leaflets are larger than those of C. orientalis, but narrower than those of C. glauca. The flowers are also significantly larger than those of C. orientalis and slightly larger than those of C. glauca. The sepals of the new species are also less hairy than those of C. orientalis and similar to those of C. glauca. The shape of the sepal is lanceolate and the apex is acute to slightly attenuate. In C. orientalis, the sepals are often linear, oblong and reflexed. The sepals of C. glauca are often wider than those of the new species (Table 1, Fig. 3).
