Abstract

Lagerstroemia stenophylla, a new species from southeastern Shaanxi Province and northwestern Hubei Province of China is described. Morphologically, L. stenophylla resembles L. subcostata, but it differs in having 4-angular, subalate branchlets, elliptic-lanceolate, or narrowly elliptic leaves, and relatively larger flowers.
