Eriobotryacrassifolia (Rosaceae), a new species from Yunnan Province, China.

The new species Eriobotryacrassifolia , collected from Yunnan Province, China, is characterised and illustrated. A phylogeny based on chloroplast genomes supported its closest affinity with E.tengyuehensis , while a phylogeny based on 197 single-copy nuclear genes supported its closest affinity with E.fragrans and E.deflexa . Morphologically, however, it resembles E.angustissima . Nevertheless, it can be easily distinguished from E.angustissima by its abaxially retroflexed and sharply serrate leaf margins, densely rusty tomentose inflorescences, and oblong or elliptic leaves.
