Rubiaceae): Evolution of Major Clades, Development of Leaf-Like Whorls, and Biogeography
TAXON 59 (3) • June 2010: 755–771 Soza & Olmstead • Molecular systematics of Rubieae Molecular systematics of tribe Rubieae (Rubiaceae): Evolution of major clades, development of leaf-like whorls, and biogeography Valerie L. Soza & Richard G. Olmstead Department of Biology, University of Washington, Box 355325, Seattle, Washington 98195-5325, U.S.A. Author for correspondence: Valerie L. Soza, [email protected] Abstract Rubieae are centered in temperate regions and characterized by whorls of leaf-like structures on their stems. Previous studies that primarily included Old World taxa identified seven major clades with no resolution between and within clades. In this study, a molecular phylogeny of the tribe, based on three chloroplast regions (rpoB-trnC, trnC-psbM, trnL-trnF-ndhJ) from 126 Old and New World taxa, is estimated using parsimony and Bayesian analyses. Seven major clades are strongly supported within the tribe, confirming previous studies. Relationships within and between these seven major clades are also strongly supported. In addition, the position of Callipeltis, a previously unsampled genus, is identified. The resulting phylogeny is used to examine geographic distribution patterns and evolution of leaf-like whorls in the tribe. An Old World origin of the tribe is inferred from parsimony and likelihood ancestral state reconstructions. At least eight subsequent dispersal events into North America occurred from Old World ancestors. From one of these dispersal events, a radiation into North America, followed by subsequent diversification in South America, occurred. Parsimony and likelihood ancestral state reconstructions infer the ancestral whorl morphology of the tribe as composed of six organs. Whorls composed of four organs are derived from whorls with six or more organs.

Significance of Protection of the Meadow and Grassland Communities for Maintenance the Floristic Diversity in the Area of the South-Eastern Silesian Upland (Poland)

Variety of relief and geology of the south-eastern Silesian Upland results in richness and diversity of its vegetation. Wet meadows and xerothermic grasslands are one of its most valuable components. In their phytocoenoses many protected (27 in meadows and 22 in grasslands) and rare (25 and 34) species have been noted. Among them there are threatened species put on the ìRed list of the vascular plants in Polandî. A few species represent the mountain element. Some meadow and grassland phytocoenoses from the south-eastern part of the Silesian Upland are characterised by exceptionally high floristic richness. The Cirsietum rivularis patches have proved to be the richest among them. Large-scale cessation of usage caused that meadows and grasslands actually need urgent active protection here. This is the only chance of survival for many rare protected and threatened plants.

Relationships with G. Scabrum
Flora Mediterranea 2 - 1992 99 Silvio Fici Galium rotundifolium (R ubiaceae) in southern Italy and its relationships with G. scabrum Abstract Fici, s.: Ga/ium rotundifo/ium (Rubiaceae) in southem Italy and its relationships with G . scabrum L.. - FI. Medit. 2: 99-104. 1992. - ISSN 1120-4052. The distribution and ecology of criticaI hairy forrns of Ga/ium rotundifo/ium from southem Italy are examined; these variants are not recognized as a separate taxon. A description of the species is given, and its relationships with G. scabrum are discussed. The latter taxon is excIuded from the flora of southem ltaly. The Galium rotundifolium group in G. sect. Platygalium Koch includes several species, viz. G. rotundifolium L., G. scabrum L. and G. thambergianum Ecklon & Zeyher (G. biafrae Hiem) as well as G. elegans Roxb., G. pilosum Aiton, G. obovatum Kunth, and others distributed in Europe, Africa, Asia, N and S America (Ehrendorfer 1952). In the Mediterranean Region the Eurasian G. rotundifolium and the Mediterranean Macaronesian G. scabrum form a closely related species pair. According to Meusel & Jager (1992) the former taxon is distributed in Europe, NW Africa and W Asia, the latter ranges from Macaronesia to the centrai Mediterranean, with its eastem limit in Sicily and southem Calabria. This group is still uncompletely investigated in some districts of S Ita1y, because of the presence of populations showing intermediate characters, as reported by Ehrendorfer (1982) for Calabria. Fici & Natali (1991) have underlined the controversal taxonomic status of similar forms from Sicily, characterized by the prostrate-ascendent habit and pauciflorous inflorescence typical of G.

Here we present the first floristic data for a mountain area in the island of Sardinia (Italy), which exhibits Mediterranean biocli- mates at the bottom and temperate bioclimate at the top. We discovered a very high floristic richness, despite the fact that the number of endemic taxa is not high and the number of exclusive taxa is very low.

The Systematic Position of Thermophilous Beechwoods (Cephalanthero-Fagenion) in Poland
Fragm. Flor. Geobot. 45(1–2): 393–412, 2000 The systematic position of thermophilous beechwoods (Cephalanthero-Fagenion) in Poland WŁADYSŁAW MATUSZKIEWICZ MATU SZ KIEWICZ, W. 2000 – The systematic position of thermophilous beechwoods (Cephalan- thero-Fagenion) in Poland. Fragmenta Floristica et Geobotanica 45(1–2): 393–412. Kraków. ISSN 0015–931x. ABSTRACT: The results of a syntaxonomical revision of the thermo- and calciphilous beech- wood communities (Cephalanthero-Fagenion Suballiance) occuring in Poland are presented. The basic material was elaborated by using of some methods of the numerical taxonomy. Five regional types (some with any subordinated units), i.e. two “associations” and three “com- munities”, are distinguished. The associations are new established according to the principles, rules and recommendations of the Code of Phytosociological Nomenclature; there are: Carici albae-Fagetum from the Pieniny Mountains and Cephalanthero rubrae-Fagetum from the Wolin Island. KEY WORDS: syntaxonomy, numerical methods, thermophilous and calciphilous beechwoods, Cephalanthero-Fagenion, Poland W. Matuszkiewicz, Gospodarska 3, PL–05–822 Milanówek, Poland SUBJECT MATTER AND AIMS Thermophilous beech and fir forests, also known as “orchidaceous” forests, constitute a unique and extreme form of beech forest of the Fagion sylvaticae alliance that is remi- niscent of communities of the order Quercetalia pubescenti-petraeae. Within their floristic composition an important role is also played by species of Prunetalia scrub communities and Trifolio-Geranietea forest-edge communities. Thermophilous beech forests are generally associated with steep, south-facing slopes and a calcareous substratum. From the geo- graphical point of view they represent a southern element in Central Europe and are best developed in the lower montane zones and in the northern foothills of the Alps-System.
