Abstract：
Pertya ferruginea Cai F. Zhang, a new species of the genus Pertya (Asteraceae: Pertyeae) from southeastern China, is
described and illustrated with a revision of P. cordifolia and P. pubescens. Specimens of the new species had been usually mis-identified as the latter two species because of unclear boundaries among most known species of the genus in southeastern China. Based on extensive field collections and much more herbarium specimens examined than previous studies, P. cordifolia and P. pubescens are revised with much narrower circumscriptions. Although very similar to P. pubescens, the new species differs in the indumentum, length of involucre, number of series of involucral bracts and corolla size. Conservation status of the new species and previous misidentifications relevant to the three species are briefly discussed.
