484E808612B55D549D8471365E7B7B3C.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Hemiboea kaiyangensis is most similar to H. longisepala Z. Y. Li, H. flaccida Chun ex Z. Y. Li and H. ovalifolia (W. T. Wang) A. Weber & Mich. Moeller in the glabrous pistil, but it differs in the cordate involucre bracts that are early deciduous, the corolla densely glandular puberulent outside and glabrous inside, and pale yellowish-green to pale yellowish-white outside.	en	Peng, Tao, He, Shun-Zhi, Wang, Shun-Li, Huang, Dan, Zhou, Xu-Ping (2022): Hemiboea kaiyangensis, a new species of Gesneriaceae endemic to Guizhou, China.

484E808612B55D549D8471365E7B7B3C.taxon	description	Pollen description. Pollen grains of Hemiboea kaiyangensis are prolate-spheroidal, long or oblate, 3 - colporoidate grains. In polar view, the outline is close to triangular-circular. The ectocolpi measures 33.05 - 33.57 x 12.15 - 14.23 μm and the endoapertures are laterally fused to form an endocingulum. Exine reticulate, muri smooth. The width of muri is unequal in size. The sizes and shapes of perforations are irregular, and vary in size from 0.14 - 0.67 x 0.11 - 0.61 μm.	en	Peng, Tao, He, Shun-Zhi, Wang, Shun-Li, Huang, Dan, Zhou, Xu-Ping (2022): Hemiboea kaiyangensis, a new species of Gesneriaceae endemic to Guizhou, China.
