Abstract
A newly recorded species, Gastrodia shimizuana Tuyama, in Taiwan is described and
illustrated. This species is apparently rare and was previously known in only few localities in Iriomote
Island, the Ryukyu Islands. We recently found it in the mountains at Beixinzhuang at elevations from
300 to 350 meters in northern Taipei, Taiwan. Although the flower of G. shimizuana is somewhat
structurally similar to that of G. pubilabiata, they are evidently different from each other in floral
dimensions, petals and lip shapes, floral color and flowering seasons.
