However, morphological similarities among allied species can result in taxonomic difficulties, thus impeding conservation efforts. In China, <i>Cinnamomum japonicum</i> <i>Siebold</i> is a well-known endangered plant, yet suffers from longstanding taxonomic issues. Here, we explicitly evaluate whether <i>C. japonicum</i>, <i>C. chenii</i>, and <i>C. chekiangense</i> are the same <i>phylogenetic</i> species on the basis of a multi-individual sampling strategy. We identified three sets of low-copy <i>orthologous</i> genes from 19 <i>Lauraceae taxa</i> for <i>phylogenetic</i> inferences.

Based on 17 728 neutral single nucleotide polymorphisms (<i>SNPs</i>), the ADMIXTURE analysis suggested that the Chinese <i>C. japonicum</i> populations in <i>Zhoushan</i> Archipelago (=<i>C. chenii</i>) were genetically differentiated from the Japanese and Korean ones.

Herein, we organize a virtual special issue in &lt;i&gt;Journal of Systematics and Evolution&lt;/i&gt; (JSE) to celebrate the legacy and life of Professor Wang, who was a leading plant taxonomist in China and made important contributions toward advancing the understanding of the flora of China, the biogeography of eastern Asia, and biodiversity research in the vast Hengduan Mountains.

He was promoted to the professor rank in 1982, and was elected as an academician of CAS in 1993. Professor Wang had a long, productive career at the Herbarium of the Institute of Botany, CAS (Fig. 2), and published more than 250 taxonomic and floristic papers and several monographs (Fig. 3). He described 28 new genera, 303 new taxa at the tribal, sectional, and series ranks, ca. 1370 new species, and 242 new combinations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Professor Wang was one of the most important participants in the compilation of the enormous 8-volume series &lt;i&gt;Iconographia Cormophytorum Sinicorum&lt;/i&gt; (Institute of Botany, CAS, &lt;span&gt;1972&lt;/span&gt;–1983) (Fig. 4). He was first assigned to be in charge of the preparation of the book series &lt;i&gt;Iconographia Cormophytorum Sinicorum&lt;/i&gt; in 1965 to set the foundation for preparing &lt;i&gt;Flora Reipublicae Popularis Sinicae&lt;/i&gt; (FRPS) and help with plant identifications in China. The book series included 11 000 higher plant species of China with brief descriptions on morphology, ecology, distribution, and uses, 9082 of which had line drawings. He contributed the treatments of several families in this book series, including Boraginaceae, Geraniaceae, Gesneriaceae, Papaveraceae, Proteaceae, Ranunculaceae, Urticaceae, and Vitaceae. This book series has been widely used by scientific institutions, colleges, and universities to train botanists and young students in biology throughout China and became the most important botanical classics from China.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Professor Wang was a taxonomic authority on several difficult plant families in China, including Boraginaceae, Rubiaceae, Ranunculaceae, Gesneriaceae, Urticaceae, and Vitaceae, through his extensive herbarium and field research (Fig. 5).
