Abstract
A newly recorded species, <i>Boehmeria nakashimae</i> Yahara, is confirmed for the first time to be distributed on forest edges on Jejudo Island, Korea. This species is known to be endemic to northern Kyushu, Japan. It is characterized by ovate to broadly ovate, ellipticovate, or sub-orbicular middle leaf shapes, serrulate-dentate and uniform margins, 17–29 teeth on one side, a short caudate or narrowly acute apex, dense glomerules at fruiting, and densely strigillose on the stems, both surfaces of the leaves, the perianth of staminate flowers, and achenes. Therefore, it is given the new name ‘Je-ju-top-mo-si-pul’ in Korean based on its serrulate-dentate leaf margin and geographical distribution. A description, photographs, illustrations, and keys of related taxa in Korea are provided.
