Hoya daimenglongensis Shao Y. He & P. T. Li (Apocynaceae, Asclepiadoideae) from Yunnan Province, China, is described and illustrated. This new species and H. linearis Wall. ex D. Don are similar in their linear leaves and terminal inflorescences. Hoya daimenglongensis, however, differs from H. linearis by the internal surface of the corolla, which is minutely tomentose and not papillose (vs. glabrous or papillose), and the corona lobes, which are white tinged with red (vs. pure white).
