Abstract: Phoebe chekiangensis, a key state-protected trees, is valuable in both timber and landscape architecture. Thus it is quite essential to give it an unambiguous name for effective scientific communication. According to the rules of latest International Code of Botanical Nomenclature(ICBN), Vienna Code, 2005, a scientific name of Phoebe chekiangensis was given. A thorough investigation on literatures and specimens has been made. Phoebe chekiangensis C.B.Shang ex P.T.Li contradicted the rules of ICBN. The lectotype of Phoebe chekiangensis was redesignated here.
