  • Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae
    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY 0 NCTMBER 52 Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae Harold Robinson, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, andJames F. Weedin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Robinson, Harold, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, and James F. Weedin. Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae. Smithsonian Contri- butions to Botany, number 52, 28 pages, 3 tables, 1981.-Chromosome reports are provided for 145 populations, including first reports for 33 species and three genera, Garcilassa, Riencourtia, and Helianthopsis. Chromosome numbers are arranged according to Robinson’s recently broadened concept of the Heliantheae, with citations for 212 of the ca. 265 genera and 32 of the 35 subtribes. Diverse elements, including the Ambrosieae, typical Heliantheae, most Helenieae, the Tegeteae, and genera such as Arnica from the Senecioneae, are seen to share a specialized cytological history involving polyploid ancestry. The authors disagree with one another regarding the point at which such polyploidy occurred and on whether subtribes lacking higher numbers, such as the Galinsoginae, share the polyploid ancestry. Numerous examples of aneuploid decrease, secondary polyploidy, and some secondary aneuploid decreases are cited. The Marshalliinae are considered remote from other subtribes and close to the Inuleae. Evidence from related tribes favors an ultimate base of X = 10 for the Heliantheae and at least the subfamily As teroideae. OFFICIALPUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is recorded in the Institution’s annual report, Smithsonian Year.

Wallace California Botanic Garden [formerly Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden], 1500 North College Avenue, Claremont, California 91711 ([email protected]) abstract An account of the extent, diversity, and importance of the Californian collections of Thomas Coulter in the herbarium (TCD) of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, is presented here. It is based on examination of collections in TCD, several other collections available online, and referenced literature. Additional infor- mation on historical context, content of herbarium labels and annotations is included. Coulter’s collections in TCD are less well known than partial duplicate sets at other herbaria. He was the first botanist to cross the desert of southern California to the Colorado River. Coulter’s collections in TCD include not only 60 vascular plant specimens previously unidentified as type material but also among the first moss andmarine algae specimens known to be collected in California. A list of taxa named for Thomas Coulter is included.

  • Checklist of the Washington Baltimore Area
    Annotated Checklist of the Vascular Plants of the Washington - Baltimore Area Part I Ferns, Fern Allies, Gymnosperms, and Dicotyledons by Stanwyn G. Shetler and Sylvia Stone Orli Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History 2000 Department of Botany, National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560-0166 ii iii PREFACE The better part of a century has elapsed since A. S. Hitchcock and Paul C. Standley published their succinct manual in 1919 for the identification of the vascular flora in the Washington, DC, area. A comparable new manual has long been needed. As with their work, such a manual should be produced through a collaborative effort of the region’s botanists and other experts. The Annotated Checklist is offered as a first step, in the hope that it will spark and facilitate that effort. In preparing this checklist, Shetler has been responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature and Orli for the database. We have chosen to distribute the first part in preliminary form, so that it can be used, criticized, and revised while it is current and the second part (Monocotyledons) is still in progress. Additions, corrections, and comments are welcome. We hope that our checklist will stimulate a new wave of fieldwork to check on the current status of the local flora relative to what is reported here. When Part II is finished, the two parts will be combined into a single publication. We also maintain a Web site for the Flora of the Washington-Baltimore Area, and the database can be searched there (http://www.nmnh.si.edu/botany/projects/dcflora).

  • Contribución Del Estado De Zacatecas (México) a La Conservación De La Riqueza Florística Del Desierto Chihuahuense
    Acta Botanica Mexicana 94: 61-89 (2011) CONTRIBUCIÓN DEL ESTADO DE ZACATECAS (MÉXICO) A LA CONSERVACIÓN DE LA RIQUEZA FLORÍSTICA DEL DESIERTO CHIHUAHUENSE JOSÉ DE JESÚS BALLEZA 1 Y JOSÉ LUIS VILLASEÑOR 2 1Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas, Unidad Académica de Agronomía, km 15.5 carretera Zacatecas-Guadalajara, 98171 Zacatecas, Zacatecas, México. [email protected] 2Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Instituto de Biología, Departamento de Botánica; Apdo. postal 70-367, 04510 México, D.F., México. [email protected] RESUMEN El Desierto Chihuahuense (DCH) es la zona árida más extensa y más rica florísticamente de las regiones secas del norte de México. El DCH forma parte de los territorios de siete estados del país, incluyendo Zacatecas que junto con San Luis Potosí representan su extremo sur. Zacatecas contiene alrededor de 46% de la flora vascular del DCH y la familia Asteraceae es un miembro importante de esta riqueza, tanto a nivel de todo el DCH como en su fracción en la entidad. Desafortunadamente, no se ha reconocido el valor del mencionado estado en las estrategias de conservación de la biodiversidad propuestas hasta ahora para la protección de la flora del DCH. En este trabajo se hace una selección de sitios considerados importantes para la conservación de la riqueza florística del DCH en Zacatecas, utilizando 198 especies de Asteraceae como variable substituta de la diversidad vegetal total y una división de la porción del DCH en el estado en 26 cuadros de 30 minutos de latitud y longitud. La selección de sitios se realizó mediante la aplicación de un método iterativo que indicó la existencia de 18 cuadros que son importantes para la protección de 100% de las especies de esta familia.

  • Annotated Species List of the Dead Horse Mountains
    APPENDIX A: ANNOTATED SPECIES LIST OF THE DEAD HORSE MOUNTAINS 166 167 APPENDIX A ANNOTATED SPECIES LIST OF THE DEAD HORSE MOUNTAINS FLORA Species are arranged by divisions following Raven et al. (2003): Lycophyta, Pteridophyta, Coniferophyta, Gnetophyta, and Anthophyta. The flowering plants are subdivided into the classes Monocotyledones and Eudicotyledones. Within these hierarchical groupings, taxa are listed alphabetically by family, genus, species, and infraspecific rank, as appropriate. Beyond a basic reliance on the Manual of Vascular Plants of Texas (Correll and Johnston 1970), taxonomy and nomenclature were taken preferentially from several updated sources, including Powell (in prep.) and Powell et al. (in ms.) for non-woody vascular species and genera, the Flora of North America volumes for the Poaceae and Asteraceae (FNA 2003b, 2006, 2007), and Powell and Weedin (2004) for the Cactaceae. Online databases were also checked for currency, authorities, and synonomy (ITIS 2007, MBG 2007, USDA 2007). Turner et al. (2003) was the fundamental source for nomenclature and distributional data. Specimens found through the herbaria search were assumed to be correctly identified unless the distribution information (dot maps reflecting collection localities) in Turner et al. (2003) raised significant doubts. In some cases, specimens were examined, and species were added to the flora or were placed on a “likely to occur” list (Appx. B). Also placed on that list were species without vouchers from the study area but that had conducive distributions according to various sources cited accordingly. Some species— either listed without a voucher or that were unable to be examined, with distributions far 167 168 away from the study area—were placed on an “unlikely to occur” list (Appx.
