    Photograph by Jim Mann Taylor Phylogeny and biogeography of the lamioid mint genus Phlomis L. Cecilie Mathiesen Candidata scientiarum thesis 2006 NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Forord Endelig, etter en noe lengre hovedfagsprosess enn planlagt, sitter jeg her med et ferdig produkt. En stor takk rettes til min veileder, Victor og min medveileder, Charlotte. Dere har vært til stor hjelp gjennom hele prosessen. Dere dyttet meg i gang igjen da jeg slet med motivasjonen etter fødselspermisjonen, det er jeg utrolig glad for. Uvurderlig hjelp har jeg også fått fra Tine, som aldri sa nei til å lese gjennom og komme med konstruktiv kritikk til mine skriblerier. Jan Wesenberg skal også takkes for all hjelp med russisk oversettelse, og Wenche H. Johansen for stor hjelp i et virvar av russiske tidsskrifter på museets bibliotek. Many thanks to Jim Mann Taylor for his hospitality, transport and help during the material sampling in his private Phlomis garden in Gloucester. He has also been a great resource in the processing of the material and his book on Phlomis made things a lot easier for a complete stranger to the genus. Videre vil jeg takke: Kasper, som er grunnen til at denne jobben tok litt lenger tid en planlagt, Mamma og Pappa for at dere alltid stiller opp, Marte og Marianne, mine aller beste venner og Nina, for all forståelse når graviditeten tok mer plass i hodet enn Phlomis og støtte på at mye er viktigere enn hovedfaget. Og selvfølgelig en spesiell takk til Terje, for at du er den du er og for at du er Kaspers pappa.

ANUALLY-constructed keys to many groups of the Egyptian flora are in urgent Mneed of improvement and updating. To construct a conventional substitute of the key to representatives of the Lamiaceae, a data matrix was compiled to include 48 characters recorded for each of the 52 species (with three subspecies and one variety) belonging to 24 genera which represent this family in the flora of Egypt. The 48 characters were accurately defined to cover as much of the easily observable aspects of vegetative and floral variation in the plants as possible. The data matrix was analyzed using the key-generating package of programs DELTA. The analysis produced a conventional key with a detailed description of every species in terms of the 48 characters. The key is decidedly a marked improvement over its predecessors in that it is strictly comparative. Updating the nomenclature of the plants led to the first recording of the genusThymbra in the flora of Egypt. Keywords: Conventional key, DELTA, Egypt, Flora, Lamiaceae, Thymbra. Introduction verticillasters in acropetal succession where the number of flowers per bract axil varies from 1 to The Lamiaceae Lindl.

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate flora of the Huzurlu Plateau in Gaziantep located in the south-east Anatolia region of Turkey. For this aim, during the floristic surveys of the Huzurlu Plateau in Gaziantep province of the Turkey, 715 species of 331 genera belonging to 85 family were recorded. Of all the collected specimens, 29 and 91 taxa were found to be rare plants and endemic, respectively, for Turkey. According to IUCN categories, 2 were Critically Endangered (CR) and 10 were Endangered (EN) of total 12 taxa recorded in this study area, besides, 101 taxa (84%) for Gaziantep and 32 taxa (26%) were new records for C6 grid square of the collected endemic and rare plants. As a result, this is the first study of investigating the flora of the Huzurlu Plateau in Gaziantep province, at the south-east Anatolia region of Turkey.

Turkey has a rich flora because of not only being affected by 8- 10 different phytogeographic zones but also having different climate patterns.

  • Gladiolus Osmaniyensis (Iridaceae), a New Species from South Anatolia, Turkey
    Turkish Journal of Botany Turk J Bot (2014) 38: 31-36 http://journals.tubitak.gov.tr/botany/ © TÜBİTAK Research Article doi:10.3906/bot-1209-60 Gladiolus osmaniyensis (Iridaceae), a new species from South Anatolia, Turkey 1, 2 Mehmet SAĞIROĞLU *, Gençay AKGÜL 1 Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences and Arts, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey 2 Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences and Arts, Nevşehir University, Nevşehir, Turkey Received: 28.09.2012 Accepted: 16.07.2013 Published Online: 02.01.2014 Printed: 15.01.2014 Abstract: A new species, Gladiolus osmaniyensis Sağıroğlu (Iridaceae), is described and illustrated from South Anatolia, Turkey. G. osmaniyensis is morphologically close to G. attilae and G. atroviolaceus. The ecology and phenology of the new species as well as its etymology, conservation status, and diagnostic morphological features are discussed. In addition, the seed surfaces of the G. osmaniyensis, G. attilae, and G. atroviolaceus are examined by SEM. The geographical distribution of the new species and the morphologically related species are mapped as well. Key words: New species, endemic, Gladiolus, Iridaceae, Turkey 1. Introduction Gladiolus attilae Kit Tan, B.Mathew & A.Baytop and G. Gladiolus L., with more than 260 species, is one of the atroviolaceus Boiss., but differs from them by having upper largest genera of the petaloid monocot plant families and lower median segments of perianth apically cuspidate, (Iridaceae subfamily Ixioideae), and is the largest genus in length of filaments (18–24 mm), anther length (15–18 Africa and Eurasia. Large as Gladiolus is in tropical Africa, mm), and turbinate to rounded and winged seeds.
