This paper presents the first quantitative ethnobotanical knowledge and practices of using native plants for different ailments from Namal Valley of Pakistan. Data was gathered by interviewing 350 informants through semi-structured questionnaires. A total of 217 taxa belonging to 166 genera and 70 families were documented. Fabaceae and Asteraceae families were found to be the most cited families (with 19 and 18 species receptively). Herbs represent the most cited life form (71%) and flower was the most widely used part (34.8%) with decoction as main mode of the utilization (41.5%). On the basis of use values, the most commonly used ethnobotanical taxa in the Valley were reported to be Euphorbia heterophylla (0.7) and Merremia dissecta (0.6). The highest RFC value was noted for Aloe vera (0.14) while highest ICF value was estimated for dental problems category (0.7). -

Environmental and Experimental Biology (2015) 13: 123–131 Original Paper Use of anatomical characteristics for taxonomical study of some Iranian Linum taxa Seyed Mehdi Talebi1*, Maryam Rashnou-Taei2, Masoud Sheidai2, Zahra Noormohammadi3 1Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, Arak University, Arak, 38156-8-8349 Iran 2Faculty of Biological Sciences, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran 3Department of Biology, School of Sciences, Tehran Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran *Corresponding author, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Linum is considered as the largest genus of Linaceae family, containing more than 180 species. The wide range of diversity within the genus Linum continues to challenge its taxonomical investigations. In present study anatomical features of vegetative organs, stem and leaf, of fourteen species, subspecies or varieties of three sections, were described with aim to improve the infrageneric classification of this genus. Plant samples were collected from natural populations of the studied taxa during 2011–2012. Embedded materials were used for microscopic investigation. Transverse hand sections of the lamina and stem were made from the middle part of fully-grown leaves and stems. Forty five qualitative and quantitative anatomical characteristics were examined in both stem and leaf. Principal Correspondence Analysis (PCA) of stem and leaf anatomical traits showed that some of these features were the most variable traits among the studied taxa. Analysis of variance showed -
A Bajuszvirág [Epipogium Aphyllum (F. W. Schmidt) Sw.] És Néhány Epipactis-Faj Előfordulása Pécsett

Schmidt) Sw.] és néhány Epipactis-faj előfordulása Pécsett 1 2 KOVÁCS Dániel – WIRTH Tamás PTE, TTK, Biológiai Intézet, Növényrendszertani és Geobotanikai Tsz. H-7624, Pécs Ifjúság u. 6., e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Bevezetés Az Epipogium aphyllum a magyar orchideaflóra egy igen ritka, mikoheterotróf faja. Pécs közigazgatási területén 2009-ben végzett raszterhálós flóratérképezésünk során, július 5-én a növény egy új, eddig nem ismert lelőhelyére találtunk. A bajuszvirág montán-szubalpin, diszjunkt areájú, eurázsiai elterjedésű faj. Az országban először POLGÁR (1935) találta meg a Bakony északi részén a Cuha völgyben, a legtöbb adata is a Bakonyból származik (BÖLÖNI – KIRÁLY 1997). Előkerült még a Visegrádi-hegységből (KOVÁCS 1957), a Kőszegi-hegységből (BÖLÖNI – KIRÁLY 1997) és az Új magyar füvészkönyvben (MOLNÁR 2009) olvasható elterjedési adatok tanúsága szerint a Bükkből is. A Dél-Dunántúlon csak Baranya megyéből ismert. A Keleti- Mecsekben két helyen találták: Vékény „Mocsola-völgy” (MILLER ap. HORVÁT 1976), Zengővárkony „Réka- völgy” (FARKAS ap. KEVEY 1993, MOLNÁR – FARKAS 1995), míg a Déli-Zselicben csak egy helyen került elő: Kán „Kakukk-völgy” (HŐDÖR 2001). Környékünkön Szlovéniában a Júliai és Kamniki Alpok montán övében, a szubpannon-, dinári-, és szubmediterrán régiókban (RAVNIK 1984), Szerbiában a Rtanj és Beljanica hegyeiben fordul elő (DIKLIĆ 1976). IUCN státusza Magyarországon „CR” (kipusztulással veszélyeztetett) (KIRÁLY 2007), Csehországban „CR” (ČEROVSKÝ 1999), Szlovákiában „EN” (veszélyeztett) (FERÁKOVÁ 2001), Romániában „R” (ritka) (1.), Horvátországban „DD” (adathiányos) (KRANJČEV 2005). Pécsen, a Misinától északra lévő Hideg-völgyben a patak partján leltünk rá egy tő egyetlen hajtására, melyen két virág volt. -

Towards an Updated Checklist of the Libyan Flora

E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract The Libyan flora was last documented in a series of volumes published between 1976 and 1989. Since then there has been a substantial realignment of family and generic boundaries and the discovery of many new species. The lack of an update or revision since 1989 means that the Libyan Flora is now out of date and requires a reassessment using modern approaches. Here we report initial efforts to provide an updated checklist covering 43 families out of the 150 in the published flora of Libya, including 138 genera and 411 species. Updating the circumscription of taxa to follow current classification results in 11 families (Coridaceae, Guttiferae, Leonticaceae, Theligonaceae, Tiliaceae, Sterculiaceae, Bombacaeae, Sparganiaceae, Globulariaceae, Asclepiadaceae and Illecebraceae) being included in other generally broader and less morphologically well-defined families (APG-IV, 2016). As a consequence, six new families: Hypericaceae, Adoxaceae, Lophiocarpaceae, Limeaceae, Gisekiaceae and Cleomaceae are now included in the Libyan Flora. -

Introduction Linseed or flax (Linum usitatissimum L., 2n= 30, X = 15) belongs to the order Malpighiales, the family Linaceae, and the tribe Lineae. It is the second most important rabi oilseed crop and stands next to rapeseed-mustard in area of cultivation and seed production in India. The genus Linum is composed of approximately 230 species but cultivated linseed / flax is the only species of economic importance in the genus (Rowland et al., 1995; Tadesse et al., 2010) and is one of the oldest plants cultivated for fibre and oil. Linseed is popularly known as Atasi, Pesi, Phesi or Tisi in Odia. Although linseed plants have several utilities, it is cultivated commercially for its seed, which is processed into oil and after extraction of oil, a high protein stock feed is left (Sankari, 2000; Kurt and Bozkurt, 2006). -
