贵州分布山茶属植物的种类资源及野外分类

The Resource and the Keys to the Groups and Species of Camellia in Guizhou

按张宏达分类系统,贵州分布的山茶属(Camellia L.)植物有4个亚属13组46种4变种。但《贵州植物志》出版较早,仅记载了42种3变种,且部分物种已在《中国植物志》第49卷3分册作异名处理。该属植物的形态特征很相似,野外分类较为困难。为方便应用,本文结合《中国植物志》和近几年的野外分类实践,主要以分类检索的形式,分组、分种对贵州分布山茶属植物进行了分类。

According to Zhang Hongda＇System, there are 46 species and 4 varieties of Camellia, belonging to 13 Groups of 4 subgenera, distributed in Guizhou Province. Since the morphological characteristics among species are much similar, the field identification is difficult. For convenience, this paper gave the keys to the groups and species of the Camellia for the field identification, based on the field experience and The Plant Index of China.
