Abstract

Cheirostylis sherriffii N. Pearce & P. J. Cribb was reported as a newly recorded species of Orchidaceae from China. The report included characteristic descriptions and color photos. This species was similar to C. glandulifera (Aver.) J. M. H. Shaw, but could be distinguished by its erect stems, short rhizome, 3-6 flowered inflorescence, and pale green sepals and petals. Voucher specimens were deposited in the Herbarium of Guangxi Institute of Botany (IBK).
