  • THE SOUTH AMERICAN NEMATOGNATHI of the MUSEUMS at LEIDEN and AMSTERDAM by J. W. B. VAN DER STIQCHEL the Collections of the South
    THE SOUTH AMERICAN NEMATOGNATHI OF THE MUSEUMS AT LEIDEN AND AMSTERDAM by J. W. B. VAN DER STIQCHEL (Museum voor het OnderwSs, 's-Gravenhage) The collections of the South American Nematognathi in the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden, referred to in this publication as "Mu• seum Leiden", and of those in the Zoologisch Museum at Amsterdam, referred to as "Museum Amsterdam", consist of valuable material, which for a very important part has not been studied yet. I feel very much obliged to Prof. Dr. H. Boschma who allowed me to start with the study of the Leiden collections and whom I offer here my sincere thanks. At the same time I want to express my gratitude towards Prof. Dr. L. F. de Beaufort, who has been so kind to place the collection of the Zoological Museum at Amsterdam at my disposal. Furthermore I am greatly indebted to Dr. F. P. Koumans at Leiden for his assistance and advice to solve the various problems which I met during my study. The material dealt with here comes from a large number of collections of different collectors, from various areas of South America, it consists of 125 species, belonging to 14 families of the order Nematognathi. Contrary to the original expectations no adequate number of specimens from Surinam could be obtained to get a sufficient opinion about the occurrence of the various species, and, if possible, also about their distribution in this tropical American part of the Netherlands. On the whole the collections from Surinam were limited to the generally known species only.

En la región Madre de Dios, es necesario seguir analizando los procesos de .cambios climáticos provenientes de la explotación de los recursos mineros, los recursos forestales, recurso castaña, etc.; Estos presentan un cambio a nivel socio - económico y ambiental en la región. Las perturbaciones naturales y los cambios climáticos se adicionan a los factores ambientales cambiantes provocando el dinamismo en la estructura y composición de los bosques; ésta es una razón para la realización del estudio de familia Apocynaceae y 'Melastomataceae en áreas pertenecientes a la Universidad Nacional de San Antonio Abad del Cusco. La ciencia y la investigación tienen un compromiso en cuestionar y buscar alternativas para una estabilidad ambiental, viabilidad económica y una respuesta social hacia las nuevas condiciones ambientales~ Por otro lado la composición florística en ambas áreas de estudio está determinada por los factores ambientales como posición geográfica, clima, suelos, topografía, dinámica del bosque y la ecología de sus especies. Una de las características más relevantes de los bosques tropicales húmedos en general es su alta diversidad de especies vegetales, tanto arbóreas, arbustivos y hierbas.

Lectotypes of A. batesii (Waterhouse, 1891), A. laetus (Waterhouse, 1891), A. simplex (Waterhouse, 1891) and A. parallelus (Harold, 1862) are designated. Twenty five new species are described: A. tuberculicollis (Trinidad: St. George), A. gracilis (Venezuela: Bolívar), A. genieri (Venezuela: Bolívar, Sucre, Tachira; Trinidad: St. George; Guiana: Potaro District), A. foveicollis (Peru: Madre de Dios, Loreto, Huanuco; Colômbia: Amazonas; Brasil: Amazonas, Pará), A. globosus (Brasil: Amazonas), A. octodentatus (Brasil: Minas Gerais), A. latistriatus (Bolívia: Beni), A. validus (Peru: Loreto, Huanuco), A. howdeni (Brasil: Amazonas), A. idei (Peru: Loreto), A. mourai (Brasil: Rondônia, Mato Grosso do Sul, Tocantins, Goiás), A. sulcatus (Brasil), A. palmispinus (Venezuela: Bolívar), A. sulcaticollis (Brasil: Minas Gerais), A. cambeforti (Peru: Cuzco), A. hirsutus (Venezuela: Bolívar), A. galileoae (Brasil: São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul), A. serranus (Brasil: Tocantins, Minas Gerais, São Paulo), A.

O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie With 3 plates Vernhout (1914) was the first to publish an account of the land and fresh- water Mollusca of Suriname. In this publication he assembled not only the older literature in which species were mentioned from Suriname, but also he named the Mollusca collected by seven expeditions and some travellers, and included in his paper the material which W. C. van Heurn collected during his trip in 1911. So he laid a sound basis for future investigations. In the present paper only the land Prosobranchia are treated. On this matter, so far as I know, only one paper has been published since 1914. This paper (Altena, 1960) mentioned Lucidella lirata (Pfeiffer) from Tamba- redjo and Sidoredjo in the Saramacca district. The Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie received specimens from Suri- name from many persons to whom I am much indebted for their cooperation. Thanks are also due to Mr. H. E. Coomans who sent me the specimens on loan, which were collected in 1926 by D. L. Fernandes. Here follows a list which mentions in chronological sequence the collectors with the months and the years in which they collected, together with the abbreviations under which they are mentioned in the text.

O trabalho faz parte do inventário florístico das epífitas e ervas da Grade PPBio Cuniã e vem sendo desenvolvido desde 2010. Este manuscrito apresenta uma chave para identificação e com tratamento taxonômico das espécies da família Aspleniaceae registradas na Estação Ecológica do Cuniã. Na área de estudo, Aspleniaceae foi representada por quatro espécies (Asplenium angustum Sw., A. hallii Hooker, A. serratum L. e A. stuebelianum Hieron), das quais A. hallii é registrada como nova ocorrência para o estado de Rondônia. Os espécimes registrados são epífitas de tronco de árvores ou palmeiras, ocorrendo em áreas mais secas (parcelas de terra firme) e úmidas (parcelas ripárias). A. serratum foi a espécie mais frequente. Palavras-chave: Amazônia; florística; Programa de Pesquisa em Biodiversidade (PPBio); samambaias. ABSTRACT Considering the great lack of scientific works on ferns and lycophytes of the state of Rondonia, the present study was developed with the aim of contributing to the knowledge about the Rondonian flora. The study is part of the floristic inventory of the epiphytes and herbs of the Biodiversity Research Program-PPBio Cuniã Grid, which has been developed since 2010.

  • Epilist 1.0: a Global Checklist of Vascular Epiphytes
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 EpiList 1.0: a global checklist of vascular epiphytes Zotz, Gerhard ; Weigelt, Patrick ; Kessler, Michael ; Kreft, Holger ; Taylor, Amanda Abstract: Epiphytes make up roughly 10% of all vascular plant species globally and play important functional roles, especially in tropical forests. However, to date, there is no comprehensive list of vas- cular epiphyte species. Here, we present EpiList 1.0, the first global list of vascular epiphytes based on standardized definitions and taxonomy. We include obligate epiphytes, facultative epiphytes, and hemiepiphytes, as the latter share the vulnerable epiphytic stage as juveniles. Based on 978 references, the checklist includes >31,000 species of 79 plant families. Species names were standardized against World Flora Online for seed plants and against the World Ferns database for lycophytes and ferns. In cases of species missing from these databases, we used other databases (mostly World Checklist of Selected Plant Families). For all species, author names and IDs for World Flora Online entries are provided to facilitate the alignment with other plant databases, and to avoid ambiguities. EpiList 1.0 will be a rich source for synthetic studies in ecology, biogeography, and evolutionary biology as it offers, for the first time, a species‐level overview over all currently known vascular epiphytes. At the same time, the list represents work in progress: species descriptions of epiphytic taxa are ongoing and published life form information in floristic inventories and trait and distribution databases is often incomplete and sometimes evenwrong.
