STEYERMARK AND COLLABORATORS FIELDIANA: BOTANY VOLUME 28, NUMBER 1 Published by CHICAGO NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM MAY 18, 1951 CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FLORA OF VENEZUELA JULIAN A. STEYERMARK Curator of the Herbarium AND COLLABORATORS FIELDIANA: BOTANY VOLUME 28, NUMBER 1 Published by CHICAGO NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM MAY 18, 1951 lt UMAKY Of TKF PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BY CHICAGO NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM PRESS - BOTANICAL EXPLORATION IN VENEZUELA I From December, 1943, to September, 1944, the author explored portions of the Venezuelan Andes, Coastal Range (Cordillera de la Costa), Duida, and Roraima on behalf of the United States govern- ment as Senior Botanist under the auspices of the Foreign Economic Administration, in connection with the Cinchona survey of that country. From October to December, 1944, under the auspices of the Chicago Natural History Museum, he made a botanical exploration of Ptari-tepui', Sororopan-tepui, Carrao-tepuT, and mesa region of Santa Teresita de Kavanayen. From February to June, 1945, sponsored by the Ministerio de Agriculture y Cria and the Servicio Botanico at Caracas, he explored the eastern section of the Cordillera de la Costa in the states of Sucre, Anzoategui, and Monagas, including the high peaks of Cerro Turumiquire. The identification of these collections was started at the beginning of the year 1946, and has continued since. The total number of plants collected amounted to 8,550 numbers, divided as follows: Andes, 2,048; eastern part of the Cordillera de la Costa, in the states of Sucre, Anzoategui, and Monagas, 1,947; western and central part of the Cordillera de la Costa, 1,261; Ptari-tepui, Sororopan- tepui^ and Carrao-tepui' 1,644; Roraima and adjacent Gran Sabana, 841; Duida and adjacent Orinoco area, 809. Apart from the numerous encountered species previously unre- corded for Venezuela, a very large number of species new to science, as well as a number of new genera, have been found. The present publication, therefore, is the first installment, to be followed in systematic order by succeeding ones, consisting of descriptions of all the new entities and new combinations made necessary as a result of the taxonomic studies. The last installment, which will follow the publication of all new species, will contain a comprehen- sive summary of the species collected in the various regions, with critical taxonomic and phytogeographical notes wherever necessary. This final summary of the flora will be published together with a more detailed account of the geology, topography, floral zones, and ecological aspects of Ptari-tepuf and surrounding area, and the surrounding area, and the eastern part of the Cordillera de la Costa in the states of Sucre, Anzoategui, and Monagas, including Cerro Turumiquire, as well as some special notes on the ascent and vege- tation of Duida and Roraima and adjacent areas explored. For this final treatment the flora will be separated into the follow- ing regions (with the exception of the Algae, Mosses, and Podo- carpaceae): (1) additions to the flora of Duida, (2) additions to the 2 FIELDIANA: BOTANY, VOLUME 28 flora of Roraima, (3) flora of Ptari-tepui' and adjacent Sororopa'n- tepui'and Carrao-tepui' which are extensions of Ptari-tepui^ (4) flora of Cerro Turumiquire and adjacent Oriente region, which includes the Cordillera de la Costa in the states of Sucre, Anzoategui, and Monagas, and (5) miscellaneous species of the Andes of Venezuela in the states of Lara, Trujillo, Merida, and Tachira. The families of cryptogams and phanerogams (with the exception of Algae, Li- chens, mosses, and Podocarpaceae) have been arranged in this order. The style of treatment has been made to conform as much as pos- sible with that found in the report by Gleason and collaborators on the "Botanical Results of the Tyler-Duida Expedition," published in The Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club 58: 277-506 (193D, and in that by Maguire and collaborators on "Plant in Explorations " Guiana in 1944, Chiefly to the Tafelberg and the Kaieteur Plateau, in the same journal, 75: 56-115, 189-230, 286-323 (1948). In order to facilitate the assembling and correlation of data from Duida, the same subdivisions of "lowland species" and "species of Mount Duida" have been continued. In the present treatment "lowland species" refer to all collections made in the Territorio Federal Amazonas between Puerto Ayacucho and the base of Mount Duida by Steyermark, and those made along the Rio Negro and Rio Guainia by Mr. Llewelyn Williams, while "species of Mount Duida" include all those made on the slopes or summit of that cerro. As regards local- ity names, the same ones have been followed as were used by Tate for Mount Roraima, by Tate and Hitchcock for Mount Duida, and by the Phelps expedition for Ptari-tepui' This has been done mainly in order to conform to existing published locality names, in the interest of clarity. Mount Ptari-tepuf lies in the southeastern portion of Venezuela in the state of Bolivar, 130 kilometers northwest of Mount Roraima and 65 kilometers to the east of Mount Auyan-tepuf, and in T T 5 45 N. Lat., 6l45 W. Long. Its extensions include Sororopan- tepuf" and Carrao-tepui' in the same latitude and longitude, all of them situated on that part of the mesa of the Gran Sabana in the vicinity of the Mission of Santa Teresita de Kavanaye'n. Ptari-tepu/ and its extensions represent one of the "northernmost extensions of the Guiana highlands in the watersheds of the Carom' and Paragua rivers." 1 The author is greatly indebted to the various collaborators for their contributions of the particular groups or families which they studied in connection with this report. To the curators of the New York Botanical Garden, Gray Herbarium, and United States National Her- barium the author is greatly indebted for the loan of critical material used in connection with the study of specimens.

  • Mapping of Bamboo Species in South, South-East and East Asia, Papua
    Potential distribution of woody bamboos in Africa and America Working Paper 43 Ms. Nadia Bystriakova, Researcher, International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (INBAR) Dr. Valerie Kapos, Senior Advisor (Forest Ecology), UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) Dr. Igor Lysenko, Conservation Analyst, UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) UNEP-WCMC Cambridge 2002 SUMMARY This study was designed to produce regional distribution maps of all species of woody bamboos occurring in Africa; North, Central and South America. Qualitative data on distribution of woody bamboos were combined with data on existing forest cover. In the course of the study, 378 individual bamboo species and subspecies, and 32 genera of Bambuseae were mapped. The highest figures of potential species richness (35 spp per square km) were recorded in Sao Paulo State, Brazil. INTRODUCTION Despite their economic and social significance, statistics on bamboo resources, especially in natural stands, are very limited. Classified as a "non-timber forest product", bamboo is not routinely included in resource inventories. A good, transparent estimate of bamboo resources has yet to be developed. As a first step to improving the information available, the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (INBAR) and the Word Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP- WCMC) have jointly initiated a project to estimate the magnitude and distribution of bamboo resources within natural stands. The first stage of the project is to combine information on the distribution of bamboo species with the global data on forest cover to determine distribution and estimate the total area of forest containing bamboo. The study was confined to woody bamboos, as these are most important from the socio- economic point of view, and the present section focuses only on those species that naturally occur in Africa and America.

Ir. H. Juanda 13, Bogor 16122, Indonesia) 2000. Schismatoglottideae (Araceae) in Malesia I — Schismatoglottis. Telopea 9(1): 1–177. Schismatoglottis Zoll. & Moritzi (Araceae) is revised for Malesia. An informal infrageneric classification, subregional keys to species and illustrations of a selection of species are provided. Generic relationships and limits, conservation status, geography and endemism, and foci for further study are discussed. Eighty-nine species are recognised and described in alphabetical order within informal groups. Of these, about one third are new to science: Schismatoglottis ahmadii A. Hay, S. bauensis A. Hay & C. Lee, S. ciliata A. Hay, S. clarae A. Hay, S. clemensiorum A. Hay, S. corneri A. Hay, S. crinitissima A. Hay, S. decipiens A. Hay, S. elegans A. Hay, S. josefii A. Hay, S. lingua A. Hay, S. moodii A.

  • PHYLOGENY, ADAPTIVE RADIATION, and HISTORICAL BIOGEOGRAPHY of BROMELIACEAE INFERRED from Ndhf SEQUENCE DATA
    Aliso 23, pp. 3–26 ᭧ 2007, Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden PHYLOGENY, ADAPTIVE RADIATION, AND HISTORICAL BIOGEOGRAPHY OF BROMELIACEAE INFERRED FROM ndhF SEQUENCE DATA THOMAS J. GIVNISH,1 KENDRA C. MILLAM,PAUL E. BERRY, AND KENNETH J. SYTSMA Department of Botany, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706, USA 1Corresponding author ([email protected]) ABSTRACT Cladistic analysis of ndhF sequences identifies eight major bromeliad clades arranged in ladderlike fashion. The traditional subfamilies Tillandsioideae and Bromelioideae are monophyletic, but Pitcair- nioideae are paraphyletic, requiring the description of four new subfamilies, recircumscription of Pit- cairnioideae and Navioideae, the sinking of Ayensua, and description of the new genus Sequencia. Brocchinioideae are basalmost, followed by Lindmanioideae, both restricted to the Guayana Shield. Next is an unresolved trichotomy involving Hechtioideae from Central America, Tillandsioideae, and the remaining bromeliads in subfamilies Navioideae, Pitcairnioideae, Puyoideae, and Bromelioideae. Bromeliads arose as C3 terrestrial plants on moist infertile sites in the Guayana Shield roughly 70 Mya, spread centripetally in the New World, and reached tropical West Africa (Pitcairnia feliciana) via long-distance dispersal about 10 Mya. Modern lineages began to diverge from each other 19 Mya and invaded drier areas in Central and South America beginning 15 Mya, coincident with a major adaptive radiation involving the repeated evolution of epiphytism, CAM photosynthesis, impounding leaves, several features of leaf/trichome anatomy, and accelerated diversification at the generic level. This ‘‘bromeliad revolution’’ occurred after the uplift of the northern Andes and shift of the Amazon to its present course. Epiphytism may have accelerated speciation by increasing ability to colonize along the length of the Andes, while favoring the occupation of a cloud-forest landscape frequently dissected by drier valleys.
