Former species

A 2021 molecular phylogenetic analysis of various species in Dubyaea found that 2 species, Dubyaea amoena (Hand.-Mazz.) Stebbins and Dubyaea gombalana (Hand.-Mazz.) Stebbins, were distinct from the rest of the genus. The new genus of Lihengia was established to include them, with the species Lihengia amoena (Hand.-Mazz.) Y.S.Chen & R.Ke and Lihengia gombalana (Hand.-Mazz.) Y.S.Chen & R.Ke.[5]
