摘要
Musa yunnanensis HAkkinen & H. Wang (Musaceae) is distributed across the Mekong River watershed in Yunnan, China. In the present study its intraspecific taxa are thoroughly investigated. These wild Musa species and varieties are commonly planted for animal fodder in higher elevations due to their cold tolerance. Three varieties of M. yunnanensis described here as a new taxa, M. yunnanensis var. caii HAkkinen & H. Wang, M. yunnanensis var. yongpingensis HAkkinen & H. Wang and M. yunnanensis var. jingdongensis HAkkinen & H. Wang, are morphologically described and illustrated based on data from field studies in Yunnan, China in 2005, 2006 and 2007. A table with the diagnostic characters of the new varieties, as well as for M. yunnanensis var. yunnanensis, is provided.
