Löfstrand1 · Sylvain G. Razafmandimbison2 · Catarina Rydin1,3 Received: 21 November 2018 / Accepted: 13 February 2019 / Published online: 20 March 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Coussareeae are a Neotropical clade of morphologically heterogeneous plants in the subfamily Rubioideae of the cofee family (Rubiaceae). The tribe encompasses about 330 species assigned to ten genera: Bradea, Coccocypselum, Coussarea, Cruckshanksia, Declieuxia, Faramea, Heterophyllaea, Hindsia, Oreopolus, and Standleya. Historically, the genera of Cous- sareeae have rarely been considered closely related, and the widely defned Coussareeae were delimited based on molecular systematics without proposed morphological synapomorphies. In order to assess the tribe’s monophyly, as well as the generic limits, infrageneric relationships, and suprageneric relationships, multiple specimens per genus were sampled whenever possible and analyzed using multiple molecular loci with the Bayesian and maximum likelihood methods. The results of the phylogenetic analyses (all genera represented by multiple terminals are monophyletic, all genera are resolved with respect to each other, and three major suprageneric clades are resolved), coupled with herbarium and literature studies, were used to identify potential synapomorphic features. Non-molecular diagnostic features remain elusive for Coussareeae as a whole, but we have identifed multiple diagnostic features and potential synapomorphies for each of the three major suprageneric clades: (1) Coussarea and Faramea (e.g., porate pollen grains with annuli bordering the pores); (2) Bradea, Coccocypselum, Declieuxia, Hindsia, and Standleya (e.g., colporate pollen grains with complex reticulate tecta); and 3) Cruckshanksia, Heterophyllaea, and Oreopolus (e.g., chartaceous, loculicidal capsules). The latter clade, distributed in diferent biomes of the Andes, is sister to the former two, both widely distributed in the Neotropics.

Naturhist. Mus. Wien, B 120 59–140 Wien, Jänner 2018 Synopsis and typification of Mexican and Central American Palicourea (Rubiaceae: Palicoureeae), part I: The entomophilous species A. Berger* Abstract The prominent but complex genus Psychotria (Rubiaceae: Psychotrieae) is one of the largest genera of flow- ering plants and its generic circumscription has been controversial for a long time. Recent DNA-phyloge- netic studies in combination with a re-evaluation of morphological characters have led to a disintegration process that peaked in the segregation of hundreds of species into various genera within the new sister tribe Palicoureeae. These studies have also shown that species of Psychotria subg. Heteropsychotria are nested within Palicourea, which was traditionally separated by showing an ornithophilous (vs. entomophilous) pol- lination syndrome. In order to render the genera Palicourea and Psychotria monophyletic groups, all species of subg. Heteropsychotria have to be transferred to Palicourea and various authors and publications have provided some of the necessary combinations. In the course of ongoing research on biotic interactions and chemodiversity of the latter genus, the need for a comprehensive and modern compilation of species of Pali­ courea in its new circumscription became apparent. As first step towards such a synopsis, the entomophilous Mexican and Central American species (the traditional concept of Psychotria subg.

    BLUMEA 35 (1991) 307-345 The genera Mitchellaand Damnacanthus. Evidence for their close alliance; comments on the campylotropy in the Rubiaceae and the circumscription of the Morindeae E. RobbrechtC. Puff & A. Igersheim Summary The two species of Mitchella (Southeast Asian and North American) and several species of the character Southeast Asian genus Damnacanthus are investigated. Vegetative states (growth form, described and branching pattern, leaves) of the two genera are compared. Damnacanthusalways ex- hibits heterophylly and some species have paired thorns. The latter are interpreted as paired lateral of branch and it is that the thorns shoots in the proximal part a sympodial unit, speculated paired be modified inflorescence shoots. may Detailed information is also given on inflorescence structure and floral morphological and ana- tomical details of Damnacanthus and Mitchella. Particular emphasis is placed on the ovaries, the structure of which is remarkably similar in the two genera. The uniovulate locules are characterized ovules which inserted the of extensive by having campylotropous are near top the septum; obturator tissue covers part of the horizontally arranged curved ovule in cap-like manner.The micropyle of the ovule, obscured by the obturator,points upwards and to some degree also inwards, while the embryo sac is found in a ± horizontal position. The seeds, however, contain minute embryos, of which the radicles are pointing ± downwards. This apparently contradicting micropyle and radicle position finds its in the unusual ovule and orientation and in the explanation structure subsequent strong growth of the endosperm, through which the embryo is pushed to the position where it is found in mature seeds.

Pollen tube growth rates (PTGRs) of angiosperms are exceptionally rapid, a pattern 25 attributed to more effective haploid selection under stronger pollen competition. Paradoxically, 26 whole genome duplication (WGD) has been common in angiosperms but rare in gymnosperms.

Cava- nilles is given. Cavanilles created at least 100 new genera, 54 of them being in current use. These genera have been used to generate the name of 2 orders, 10 families, 7 sub- families, 16 tribes and 9 subtribes; at least 1 order (Calycerales) and 5 families (Calyce- raceae, Cobaeaceae, Epacridaceae, Eucryphyaceae and Oleandraceae) are generally accepted and under current use. Most of these taxa belong to the tropical and subtropical flora.
