A new species, Ulnaria shun-biseriata sp. nov., was found in the Shun River of Hunan Province, southern China, and its morphology was described based on light and scannning electron microscope obervations. Ulnaria shun-biseriata is characterized by its lanceolate valve outline, apiculate valve apices, slightly undulate valve margins, mostly biseriate striae, variable central area, and closed valvocopula. Many abnormal valves of U. shun-biseriata were observed in the samples investigated and the most frequent morphological abnormalities consisted of a lack of symmetry relative to the apical axis caused by a unilateral expansion in the middle part of the valve.
