Indigenous South African Plants That Provide Food for Honeybees Honeybees Feed on Nectar (Carbohydrates) and Pollen (Protein) from a Wide Variety of Flowering Plants Indigenous South African Plants that Provide Food for Honeybees Honeybees feed on nectar (carbohydrates) and pollen (protein) from a wide variety of flowering plants. While the honeybee forages for nectar and pollen, it transfers pollen from one flower to another, providing the service of pollination, which allows the plant to reproduce. However, bees don’t pollinate all flowers that they visit. This list is based on observations of bees visiting flowers in Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, and on a variety of references, in particular the following: Plant of the Week articles on www.PlantZAfrica.com Johannsmeier, M.F. 2005. Beeplants of the South-Western Cape, Nectar and pollen sources of honeybees (revised and expanded). Plant Protection Research Institute Handbook No. 17. Agricultural Research Council, Plant Protection Research Institute, Pretoria, South Africa This list is primarily Western Cape, but does have application elsewhere.

  • HURTLING TOWARDS EXTINCTION Five Charismatic, Threatened Red Data List Plants
    HURTLING TOWARDS EXTINCTION Five charismatic, threatened Red Data List plants. byJanice Golding, SABONET, c/o National Botanical Institute, Pretoria Plant Red Data Lists list extinct, threatened and potentially threatened plants that have been assigned risk categories according to guidelines set by the World Conservation Union (IUCN). Approximately 10% of South Africa's plant species appear on the Red Data List (RDL). Preliminary expectations are that many species categorized as 'indeter­ minate' or 'uncertain' should in fact be removed from the forthcoming Red Data List. In this article, five plant species with RDL status are selected, all of which are found in habitats that are subjected to human modification. These charismatic plants can serve as important flagships for conserving ecologically sensitive habitats. No reference is made to grasslands and important plant groups (such as cycads or ground succulents) that also desperately require protection against extinction. APONOGETON RANUNCULIFLORUS Aponogeton ranunculiflorus (Aponogetonaceae) is an aquatic vascular plant, known from humic tarns (sandstone depressions filled with water) from the Drakensberg summit. The species grows at an altitude of 2 600 m in the mist belt. The species straddles Lesotho and KwaZulu-Natal. Its RDL status was assessed by Hilton-Taylor as 'rare' and as 'vulnerable' by Scott-Shaw (based on past population declines, its limited distrib­ ution range and the few number of known localities). The type specimen was collected in Lesotho's Sehlabathebe National Park, in a 3 ha zone and was first described in 1972. Subsequent surveys have found more localities, all of which are within a 10 kIn radius of the type locality.

  • Preliminary Phylogeny of Diplostephium (Asteraceae): Speciation Rate and Character Evolution
    NUMBER 15 VARGAS AND MADRIN˜ A´ N: SPECIATION AND CHARACTER EVOLUTION OF DIPLOSTEPHIUM 1 PRELIMINARY PHYLOGENY OF DIPLOSTEPHIUM (ASTERACEAE): SPECIATION RATE AND CHARACTER EVOLUTION Oscar M. Vargas1,2 and Santiago Madrin˜a´n2 1Section of Integrative Biology and the Plant Resources Center, The University of Texas, 205 W 24th St., Stop CO930, Austin, Texas 78712 U.S.A., email: [email protected] 2Laboratorio de Bota´nica y Sistema´tica Universidad de los Andes, Apartado Ae´reo 4976, Bogota´, D. C., Colombia Abstract: Diplostephium comprises 111 neotropical species that live in high elevation habitats from Costa Rica to Chile. Primarily Andean, the genus seems to have undergone an adaptive radiation indicated by its high number of species, broad morphological variation, and diversification primarily in an ecosystem (pa´ramo) that formed within the last 2–5 my. Internal transcriber spacer (ITS) sequences and several chloroplast markers, rpoB, rpoC1, and psbA-trnH were sequenced in order to infer a preliminary phylogeny of the genus. The chloroplast regions showed no significant variation within the genus. New ITS data were therefore analyzed together with published sequences for generating a topology. Results suggest that Diplostephium and other South American genera comprise a polytomy within which a previously described North American clade is nested. Monophyly of Diplostephium was neither supported nor rejected, but the formation of a main crown clade using different methods of analysis suggests that at least a good portion of the genus is monophyletic. A Shimodaira-Hasegawa test comparing the topology obtained and a constrained one forcing Diplostephium to be monophyletic showed no significant difference between them.
