Abstract:Based on literature review, field work and examination of specimens, the genus Ceropegia Linn. (Apocynaceae) in South China is revised, Ceropegia angustilimba Merr. is reinstated from the synonym of C. trichantha Hemsl., and detailed descriptions for the two species are provided; it is confirmed that the record of C. salicifolia H. Huber in South China is a misidentification of C. dolichophylla Schltr., and a detailed description of the latter species is provided.
