Yunnan: Puer, Jingdong, Qingren Valley. 20 July 2015, Zhen Zhang, Xiao-Mei Wang et Hai-Yan Gao JDH-6 (holotype HSNU00075747!, Fig. 2); isotype JDH-7 (HSNU00075746!).</p> <p>Diagnosis:— The new species is distinguishable from the other member in the F. sarmentosa complex according to its glabrous bathphylls, rather big long-elliptical acrophylls with apex round, and tuberculate and muricate figs and the abaxial surface of lamina.</p> <p>Description: —Root-climber. Branchlets glabrous, celadon to brown, with some conspicuous lenticels around the nodes, 1–2 mm in diameter when juvenile, ca. 2–4 mm when mature. Stipules 2, 4–12 mm, triangular-lanceolate to long-lanceolate, reddish brown, fairy, caducous; bathphylls distichous but often reverse to all the laminas downward, petiole 0.5–2.5 cm long, greenish to brown, glabrous, lamina long-elliptical, 3–5 × 6–14.5 cm, thinly leathery, base narrowly cordiform, apex acuminate to short caudate, margin entire, veins 8–10 pairs, abaxially slightly raised and adaxially descending, basal vein short and up to 1/4 of lamina length; acrophylls distichous, petiole 0.5–2(–2.5) cm, brown, glabrous, lamina long-elliptical to oblong, 4–9 × (10–) 13–26 cm, subcoriaceous to coriaceous, base rounded, apex obtuse, margin entire, veins 8–11 pairs, adaxially somewhat descending, abaxially slightly reticulate and sparely tuberculate, basal vein up to 1/3 of lamina length. Figs gynodioecious, axillary, solitary, peduncle 1.5 mm to sessile, basal bracts 3, ca. 2.5 mm, often deciduous, triangular, glabrous; receptacle globose to depressed globose, 1.5–2 cm in diameter, dark greenish or yellowish green, covered by bristle when juvenile and glabrescent when mature, sparely tuberculate; ostiole ca. 2–3 mm in diameter; internal hairs abundant, short, lissome, pellucid, ca. 1 mm in length. Staminate flowers numerous, scattered near the ostiole, pedicel 4 mm to sessile; calyx 4, light green to light pink, translucent, glabrous, ovate, lanceolate to linear, 2–2.5 mm in length, ca. 1 mm in width; stamens 2, lanceolate to oblong, about equal to tepals in length or slightly longer, filament absent. Gall flower numerous, pedicel sessile to the most 5 mm; calyx 4–5, pink, translucent, linear or spatulate, 2.5–3 mm in length and 0.5 mm in width, glabrous; ovary subsessile, obovoid, constricted at the base, 2–2.5 mm at height; style lateral, short, about 0.2 mm; stigmas mucronate. Pistillate flowers many, sessile to the most 5 mm, calyx 4–5(–6), spatulate, 2–3 mm in length and ca. 0.6 mm in width, glabrous; ovary obovoid, ca. 2 mm in height and ca. 2.5 mm at height; style lateral, shorter than the height of the ovary, 1–1.5 mm in height; stigmas threadlike.</p> <p>Distribution and Habitat: — CHINA. Yunnan Province:Xishuanbannan; Honghe; Lincang; Puer (type locality).— LAOS. Louang Namtha Province: Namtha District, Nalan Village. The new species lies on the ground or trunk under tropical evergreen broad-leaf forests at altitudes of 500–1500 m.</p> <p>Etymology: —The specific epithet is used to describe its key trait, muricate and tuberculate large fig. Its Chinese name “ Dzvffi ” should be spelled as “Liu Guo Rong”</p> <p>Additional specimens examined: — CHINA.

Louang Namtha Province: Namtha District, Nalan Village, 10 November 2022, Dong-Li Quan, Bin Yang, Li Wang, Lothkham, Seng, Gam In L1287 (HITBC!).</p> <p>Note: —Some specimens of the newly described species already existed in KUN and NAS collected from 1936 to 2000. However, these specimens were usually mistakenly identified as F. pubigera or F. pubigera var. maliformis, or even F. foveolata (Wall. ex Miq. 1848:77) Miquel (1867: 294) earlier. Morphologically, F. muricata is obviously different from all varieties of F. pubigera in the aspects of long-elliptical acrophylls with apex round as well as big, muricate, and subglabrous figs.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F8AA28FFDD2959FF7FFCB8FE267B1C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Considering the priority doesn’t work outside the rank in which it is published (Art. 11.1 and 11.2 (Turland et al. 2018)), F. yunnanensis was reinstated as a correct name, whereas F. pubigera var. maliformis is treated as a synonym here. Though their typification and species examination have been provided (Zhang Z. et al. 2020a), the precise application of F. yunnanensis is challenging because of the extremely rare specimen records and color photos. Therefore, a detailed plate has been provided (Fig. 5) based on our fieldwork from Medog, Tibet in China.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F8AA28FFD22959FF7FFEDAFAEE79A0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
