Ecophysiological traits are the basis of the functioning of an ecosystem. However, studies related to the identification of functional groups based on plant ecophysiological traits in tropical forests are still scarce because of the inherent difficulties in measuring them. In this study, we measured five ecophysiological traits: net photosynthetic capacity (Amax), maximum stomatal conductance (gmax), water use efficiency (WUE), transpiration rate (Trmmol), and specific leaf areas (SLA) for 87 plant species dominant in a chronosequence of secondary succession, using four time periods (5 year-primary, 15 year-early, and 40 year-middle successional stages after clear cutting and old growth) in the tropical montane rainforest on Hainan Island, China. -

THE BAMBOOS of NEPAL and BHUTAN PART III: Drepanostachyum, Himalayacalamus, Ampelocalamus, Neomicrocalamus and Chimonobambusa (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae)
EDINB. J. BOT. 51(3): 301–330 (1994) THE BAMBOOS OF NEPAL AND BHUTAN PART III: Drepanostachyum, Himalayacalamus, Ampelocalamus, Neomicrocalamus and Chimonobambusa (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae) C. M. A. S TAPLETON * This paper completes the systematic treatment of the bamboos of Nepal and Bhutan, covering five genera from subtropical to lower temperate zones. Three further genera from the subtribe Arundinariinae Bentham are included: Drepanostachyum Keng f., Himalayacalamus Keng f., and Ampelocalamus Chen, Wen & Sheng . They have semelauctant ebracteate inflorescences, pachymorph rhizomes, and 3 stamens. Neomicrocalamus Keng f. has semel- auctant bracteate inflorescences and 6 stamens, and is in the new subtribe described here, Racemobambosinae. Chimonobambusa Makino has bracteate inflorescences and 3 stamens and is the only Himalayan genus in the subtribe Shibataeinae (Nakai) Soderstrom & Ellis. A new Drepanostachyum species from Bhutan is described as D. annulatum. Himalayacalamus , which was originally described as a monotypic genus, is enlarged by the description of five new species, H. asper , H. brevinodus , H. cupreus , H. fimbriatus , and H. porcatus , all from Nepal. A Himalayan representative of the genus Ampelocalamus , A. patellaris , is transferred from Dendrocalamus. Neomicrocalamus andro- pogonifolius from eastern Bhutan is transferred from Bambusa . STATUS AND S EPARATION OF THE G ENERA These genera have all been considered to be part of Arundinaria Michaux at one time. The type species of the genera Drepanostachyum Keng f. , Ampelocalamus Chen, Wen & Sheng, Neomicrocalamus Keng f., and Chimonobambusa Makino were originally described as species of Arundinaria Michaux, while the type species of Himalayacalamus was initially described as a species of Thamnocalamus Munro, before being transferred into Arundinaria . -

PhytoKeys 109: 67–76. https://doi.org/10.3897/ phytokeys.109.27566 Abstract Ampelocalamus calcareus is a climbing and slender bamboo, known from south Guizhou, China. This species grows in broadleaved forests of limestone montane areas. Recent molecular phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that A. calcareus was sister to all other lineages of the tribe Arundinarieae rather than a member of Ampelocalamus. The morphological features and habitats of A. calcareus and related genera including Ampelocalamus, Drepanostachyum and Himalayacalamus were compared and discussed. The characteristics of the branch complements, nodes and foliage leaves distinguish A. calcareus from morpho- logically similar taxa. On the basis of molecular and morphological evidence, we propose to establish a new genus, Hsuehochloa, to accommodate A. -
