Bromeliad Flora of Oaxaca, Mexico: Richness and Distribution
Acta Botanica Mexicana 81: 71-147 (2007) BROMELIAD FLORA OF OAXACA, MEXICO: RICHNESS AND DISTRIBUTION ADOLFO ESPEJO-SERNA1, ANA ROSA LÓPEZ-FERRARI1,NANCY MARTÍNEZ-CORRea1 AND VALERIA ANGÉLICA PULIDO-ESPARZA2 1Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, División de Ciencias Biológicas y de la Salud, Departamento de Biología, Herbario Metropolitano, Apdo. postal 55-535, 09340 México, D.F., México. [email protected] 2El Colegio de la Frontera Sur - San Cristóbal de las Casas, Laboratorio de Análisis de Información Geográfica y Estadística, Chiapas, México. [email protected] ABSTRACT The current knowledge of the bromeliad flora of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico is presented. Oaxaca is the Mexican state with the largest number of bromeliad species. Based on the study of 2,624 herbarium specimens corresponding to 1,643 collections, and a detailed bibliographic revision, we conclude that the currently known bromeliad flora for Oaxaca comprises 172 species and 15 genera. All Mexican species of the genera Bromelia, Fosterella, Greigia, Hohenbergiopsis, Racinaea, and Vriesea are represented in the state. Aechmea nudicaulis, Bromelia hemisphaerica, Catopsis nitida, C. oerstediana, C. wawranea, Pitcairnia schiedeana, P. tuerckheimii, Racinaea adscendens, Tillandsia balbisiana, T. belloensis, T. brachycaulos, T. compressa, T. dugesii, T. foliosa, T. flavobracteata, T. limbata, T. maritima, T. ortgiesiana, T. paucifolia, T. pseudobaileyi, T. rettigiana, T. utriculata, T. x marceloi, Werauhia pycnantha, and W. nutans are recorded for the first time from Oaxaca. Collections from 226 (of 570) municipalities and all 30 districts of the state were studied. Among the vegetation types occurring in Oaxaca, oak forest is the richest with 83 taxa, followed by tropical deciduous forest with 74, and cloud forest with 73 species. -

Anoura; bromeliads; Aims: We present a comprehensive review of bat pollination in bromeliads, covering floral chiropterophily; floral scent; traits, rewards offered to pollinators, floral attractants and the identity of visiting bat species. nectar; pollination; Werauhia Methods: We discuss traits shared among chiropterophilous bromeliads and present general trends in an evolutionary context. We constructed a phylogenetic tree to elucidate the ancestral pollination syndromes of the 42 extant bromeliad species (ca. 1% of total) known to be bat-pollinated. Results: Most of the species within the ten genera reported belong to the Tillandsioideae subfamily, with three genera appearing to be exclusively bat-pollinated. Floral visitors include 19 bat species of 11 genera from the Phyllostomidae. -

First Record of Bat-Pollination in the Species-Rich Genus Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae)
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2014 First record of bat-pollination in the species-rich genus Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae) Aguilar-Rodriguez, Pedro Adrián ; MacSwiney G, M Christina ; Krömer, Thorsten ; García-Franco, José G ; Knauer, Anina ; Kessler, Michael Abstract: Background and Aims Bromeliaceae is a species-rich neotropical plant family that uses a vari- ety of pollinators, principally vertebrates. Tillandsia is the most diverse genus, and includes more than one-third of all bromeliad species. Within this genus, the majority of species rely on diurnal pollination by hummingbirds; however, the flowers of some Tillandsia species show some characteristics typical for pollination by nocturnal animals, particularly bats and moths. In this study an examination is made of the floral and reproductive biology of the epiphytic bromeliad Tillandsia macropetala in afragment of humid montane forest in central Veracruz, Mexico. Methods The reproductive system of the species, duration of anthesis, production of nectar and floral scent, as well as diurnal and nocturnal floral vis- itors and their effectiveness in pollination were determined. Key Results Tillandsia macropetala isa self-compatible species that achieves a higher fruit production through outcrossing. Nectar production is restricted to the night, and only nocturnal visits result in the development of fruits. The most frequent visitor (75 % of visits) and the only pollinator of this bromeliad (in 96 % of visits) was the nectariv- orous bat Anoura geoffroyi (Phyllostomidae: Glossophaginae). Conclusions This is the first reportof chiropterophily within the genus Tillandsia. The results on the pollination biology of this bromeliad suggest an ongoing evolutionary switch from pollination by birds or moths to bats. -
