摘要
Two Mexican species, Abelia mexicana and A. grandifolia, are proposed as new. They are morphologically related to A. coriacea Hemsley, from which they can be distinguished by their larger leaves and by flowers and the hispid vestiture on the abaxial side of midvein of the leaves. Abelia grandifolia differs from A, mexicana by its decumbent habit, subcoriaceous leaves with bullate surface, and distribution. The former is known from Oaxaca and the latter from Queretaro. Descriptions, figures, and a comparative table are provided.
