Silene langshanensis L.Q. Zhao, Y.Z. Zhao & Z.M. Xin sp. nova (Caryophyllaceae), is described and illustrated from Inner Mongolia, China. It appears to be most closely related to S. scabrifolia of Silene sect. Holopetalae. Silene langshanensis can be distinguished by the basally pubescent carpophore, petals with obtuse auricles, stems and leaves with dense, short hairs, and by the glabrous calyx.
