Sedum xunvense has only been found on Jianglang Mountain, Jiangshan City, in southwestern Zhejiang Province. It grows in mossy thickets on rock walls and under the forest by the ravine at an elevation of 239 meters.</p> <p>Phenology. Flowering and fruiting period from May to June.</p> <p>Etymology. The species epithet is named after the Xunv Lake in Jianglang Mountain, where this new species was found.</p> <p>Vernacular name. xū nǚ jǐng tiān (Chinese pronunciation); NJfffiƙ (Chinese name).</p> <p>Conservation Status. Sedum xunvense is endemic to Jianglang Mountain, and it is currently known from a single rock by the trail, with less than 100 individuals. It could be easily destroyed or over-harvested. Therefore, S. xunvense should be classified as Critically endangered (CR) according to IUCN criteria B and C [6–8].</p> <p>Additional specimen examined (paratypes).
