Abstract

Based on the integrated morphological and molecular evidence, <i>Amana yunjuensis</i>, originally described from Mt. Yunju in Jiangxi province, is demonstrated not essentially different from <i>A. anhuiensis</i>. Indistinguishable diagnostic characters, nested phylogenomic relationships, and no genetic distinctiveness of population genomic structure all indicate that <i>A. yunjuensis</i> does not represent an independent evolutionary lineage. Accordingly, <i>A. yunjuensis</i> should be treated as a taxonomic synonymy of <i>A. anhuiensis</i>.
