Collection: Pensoft Publishers

Keywords: bamboo · Topics: Plant Taxonomy and Phylogenetics, Plant and Fungal Species Descriptions, Bamboo properties and applications

Sasa tomentosa is transferred to the genus Yushania following a reassessment based on a new collection with pachymorph and long-necked rhizomes from its type locality in Guangxi, China. Morphologically, it is most similar to Yushania doupengshanensis, but differs in culm, branch complement and foliage leaf characters. A revised description of its morphology and color photos are also provided.
