Abstract

Corydalismicroflora and C.lidenii are recognised as separate species in "Flora of China" and the latest plant list. However, based on the examination of type specimens and field investigations, C.lidenii is shown to be conspecific with C.microflora. As a result, C.lidenii is synonymised with C.microflora in this study.

Keywords: China; Corydalislidenii; Corydalismicroflora; Sichuan; new synonym; taxonomy.
