Abstract
A new species, Bambusa andhricum sp. nov. (Poaceae), is described from Andhra Pradesh,
India. The new species is morphologically allied to Bambusa tulda, but
differs distinctly in several diagnostic characters, including branching
pattern, culm height, culm sheath morphology, auricle bristles, and nodal ring
characteristics. The molecular divergence provides preliminary evidence
supporting the recognition of B. andhricum as a distinct taxon. A
detailed description, along with photographic documentation and Barcode
Sequence analysis, is provided.
