We named and described Clematis calcicola J. S. Kim, a new species of Clematis sect. Atragene (Ranunculaceae) found in a limestone area of Mt. Deokhang, Korea. Clematis calcicola is distinguished from the other species of sect. Atragene by 1) sparsely dentate, glabrescent, and subcoriaceous leaflets and 2) smooth and thick sepals.
