Abstract
Pilea weimingii Huan C. Wang, a new species in Urticaceae, is described and illustrated. It was found in central areas of Yunnan Province, southwest China. It morphologically resembles P. elegantissima, but clearly differs from it by its lanceolate to linear-lanceolate, 2–7 cm long and 0.4–1 cm wide leaves (L/W ratio 5–10) with a long acuminate apex.
