            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> The new species is morphologically similar to  G. multifolius , but differs by having densely white pubescence (vs. glabrous) on the culm leaf sheaths, culm leaf blades erect (vs. reflexed); apical branch sheaths much longer (vs. slightly longer or equilong) than the internodes; foliage leaf blades mesophyll (vs. notophyll). </p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p> Rhizomes leptomorph. Culms 1.7-4.2 m, 3.5-10 mm in diameter; erect, apically slightly nodding; internodes initially covered with white pubescence, ca. 14-35 cm long, wall 0.6-1.9 mm thick; each node with a ring of white-gray appressed pubescence below sheath scar; branching intravaginal, arising from 5th node above ground, ca. 4-11 (16) branches per node; branches equal or subequal, ca. 5-30 cm long. Culm leaves sheaths persistent, 12-19 cm, culm leaf sheath abaxially with brown patches, densely white pubescent and sparsely setose near the base; culm leaf blade erect, linear-lanceolate, 0.5-2 cm long, 2 mm wide, apex acuminate, base blunt or truncate, ca.1/3 as wide as sheath apex, oral setae 2-4 on each side of the sheath apex, ca. 4 mm long; auricles absent; ligule truncate, ca. 0.5 mm high, scabrous. Branch sheath papery, white setose, without black spots, margins ciliate; sub-apical branch sheath ca. 3 cm beyond the internode. Foliage leaves usually solitary on ultimate branches; ligule truncate, ca. 1 mm, scabrous; auricles absent; oral setae 1-3 pairs straight or curved; leaf blade broadly lanceolate, usually 23.4-32.5  × 3.2-4.9 cm, lateral veins 6-8 pairs, abaxial surface basally pubescent, base cuneate and asymmetrical, margins serrulate and slightly revolute near base. </p>
            <p>Phenology.</p>

            <p>Distribution and habitat.</p>
            <p> To date, this species has only been found under evergreen broad-leaved forest along river banks at 500-600 m in Chengkang Village, Lianping Township, Zixing County. Species growing in the surrounding area include  Quercus myrsinifolia Blume, 1871 (  Fagaceae ),  Aralia chinensis L., 1868 (  Araliaceae ),  Eurya japonica Thunb., 1783 (  Pentaphylacaceae ), and  Liriope spicata (Thunb.)
