Abstract:

Aspidistra is a genus mainly found in eastern Asia, with its distribution and dif-

ferentiation center in Guangxi of China. In the present paper, all the taxa hitherto recorded

in China are taxonomically and phytogeographically revised. As a result, 47 species are rec-

ognized, of which 45 are endemic to China and four are new to science, i. e. A. ebianensis

K. Y. Lang et Z. Y. Zhu, A. fenghuangensis K. Y. Lang, A. oblongifolia F. T. Wang

et K. Y. Lang and A. fosciaria G. Z. Li, A key to all species is provided and all the speci-

mens examined are cited.
