Plant uses in this biogeographic region are coal, and quality woods for different purposes. However, relatively well known, but the forest perception by local there are many non-timber goods used for local subsis- populations was not studied so far. A total of 77 stock- tence or for national and international trading (FAO 2009, men and other local salaried people were interviewed with Phillips et al. 1994). semi-structured interviews, and herbarium specimens were produced with the informants.

Molecular Phylogeny and Diversification History of Prosopis

Intendente Güiraldes 2160, Ciudad Universitaria, C1428EGA - Capital Federal, Argentina. 2Instituto de Biotecnología, CICVyA INTA Castelar, CC 25 Castelar 1712, Argentina Received 29 December 2006; accepted for publication 31 May 2007 The genus Prosopis is an important member of arid and semiarid environments around the world. To study Prosopis diversification and evolution, a combined approach including molecular phylogeny, molecular dating, and character optimization analysis was applied. Phylogenetic relationships were inferred from five different molecular markers (matK-trnK, trnL-trnF, trnS-psbC, G3pdh, NIA). Taxon sampling involved a total of 30 Prosopis species that represented all Sections and Series and the complete geographical range of the genus. The results suggest that Prosopis is not a natural group. Molecular dating analysis indicates that the divergence between Section Strombocarpa and Section Algarobia plus Section Monilicarpa occurred in the Oligocene, contrasting with a much recent diversification (Late Miocene) within each of these groups. The diversification of the group formed by species of Series Chilenses, Pallidae, and Ruscifoliae is inferred to have started in the Pliocene, showing a high diversification rate. The moment of diversification within the major lineages of American species of Prosopis is coincident with the spreading of arid areas in the Americas, suggesting a climatic control for diversification of the group. -

This is the twelfth contribution for this flora, published in Phytoneuron and also posted open access on the website of the University of Arizona Herbarium (ARIZ). This contribution to our flora in southwestern Arizona includes 9 eudicot families, 23 genera, and 25 species: Campanulaceae (2 genera, 2 species); Cannabaceae (2 genera, 3 species); Capparaceae (1 species); Caprifoliaceae (1 species); Caryophyllaceae (6 genera, 6 species); Cleomaceae (2 genera, 2 species); Crassulaceae (3 genera, 3 species); Crossosomataceae (1 species); and Cucurbitaceae (5 genera, 6 species). A synopsis of local distributions and growth forms of the nine families is given in Table 1. -
