Abstract: A new name of Cephalotaxaceae, Cephalotaxus talonensis Cheng et Feng ex S. G. Lu et X. D. Lang, is reported to replace the illegitimate name, Cephalotaxus lanceolata K. M. Feng(1975), which is a later homonym of the name Cephalotaxus lanceolata Hort. ex Beiβner (1901). Additionally, based on comparison of leaf morphology and holotypes between Cephalotaxus fortunei Hooker and C.lanceolata K. M. Feng, we support that C.lanceolata K. M. Feng should be treated as rank of species, and disagreed with the argument that Silba (1990) reduced C.lanceolata K. M. Feng to C.fortunei Hooker var. lanceolata (Feng) Silba. In this paper, four new pictures are provided.

Key words: Cephalotaxaceae, Cephalotaxus talonensis Cheng et Feng ex S.G.Lu et X.D.Lang, new name
