ROBSON (Department of Botany, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD) Abstract Two new species, both related to H. hookerianum Wight Arn., are described from northern Yunnan, H. fosteri N. Robson and H. wardianum N. Robson. The former is apparently endemic, having been found in only one locality, whereas the latter also occurs in north-eastern Myanmar. Both differ in particular from H. hookerianum in that the capsule is elongate, not ovate-subglobose and the sepals are not ribbed. In addition, H. bellum ssp. latisepalum is raised to specific rank as H. latisepalum (N. Robson) N. Robson and the variable H. lagarocladum is divided into two subspecies, one broad-leaved with a spreading habit (ssp. lagarocladum) and the other narrow-leaved and more erect (ssp. angustifolium N. Robson). Key words Hypericum L., Clusiaceae, section Ascyreia, new taxa, Yunnan, China. In connection with the revision of Clusiaceae – Hypericoideae for Flora of China, it is necessary to publish four nomenclature innovations in Hypericum L. sect. Ascyreia . Of these, two are new species from Yunnan and two result from changes of opinion since publication of the author’s monographic treatment of that section (Robson, 1985). 1. Hypericum fosteri N.
