Abstract: Two new species of Araliaceae from China are described based on material examined while preparing a treatment of the family for the Flora of China. Brassaiopsis pseudoficifolia Lowry & C. B. Shang, primarily found in Yunnan with a single collection known from adjacent Guangxi, most closely resembles B. ficifolia Dunn, but differs in having more numerously lobed leaves, more umbels per inflorescence, and prickles on the inflorescence axes and the stems.
