Abstract

Herein is described a new species of Impatiens violascens B.U. Oh & Y.Y. Kim (Balsaminaceae) discovered on Bohyeon Mountain in Yeongcheon-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. The new species is distinct from a closely-related species, I. textorii, by having a flower half the size that of I. textorii, sharply narrowed lower sepal, one half- to one time-coiled spur, and distal lobes of elliptical type laterally united petals. The key to these two species is provided.

물봉선속(봉선화과)의 1신종인 꼬마물봉선이 한국의 경상북도 영천시 보현산에서 발견되어 기재되었다. 신종은 근연종인 물봉선(I. textorii)에 비해 1/2 크기의 꽃, 급격히 좁아지는 하악편, 1/2 회에서 1 회 감기는 거, 타원형인 측화판의 선단부 열편을 가짐으로써 뚜렷하게 구별되었다. 본 연구에서 이들 두 종의 검색표를 제시하였다.
