Investigation of the Usage Possibilities of Araceae Genera in Landscape Design and Applications in Turkey ABSTRACT Despite being described as indoor ornamental plants, little is known about what Araceae genera are and their possible uses in contemporary technology-based landscape design and applications in Turkey. In this article, studies on Araceae genera's geographical spread, ecology, habitats, life forms and morphologies have been reviewed. The review demonstrated that Araceae is suitable for gardens, vertical gardens, outdoor planters, indoor planters, terrariums, aquariums, aquaponic systems, koi and shrimp ponds, plant ponds, biological ponds, and swimming pools.

Nevertheless, explorations of the vegetation are relatively rare. Our study aims to supplement a recent checklist of vascular plants of Angola. Methods – Data were collected during 17 field trips between 2013 and 2018, during which herbarium specimens were prepared for later identification of plant species. The results were compared with the current checklist as well as with other floristic works, herbarium collections and online databases relevant for the region. Key results – We document 20 new records of indigenous vascular plant species for the flora of Angola (19 species and one subspecies), including four new generic records. Furthermore, nine alien species are added to the checklist of the flora of Angola. Conclusion – Our results confirm that the flora of northern Angola is composed by elements of various adjacent areas.

  • Monodominant Forests of Aucoumea Klaineana and Terminalia Superba in the Chaillu Forest (Sw Congo, Africa)
    Polish Botanical Journal 48(2): 145–162, 2003 MONODOMINANT FORESTS OF AUCOUMEA KLAINEANA AND TERMINALIA SUPERBA IN THE CHAILLU FOREST (SW CONGO, AFRICA) SERGE V. PANGOU, GEMA MAURY-LECHON & ANTOINE MOUTANDA Abstract: The paper describes the vegetation types observed in the Ngoua 2 Forest. Analysis of floristic composition led to ident- ification of four vegetation types there: monodominant forest of Terminalia superba and of Aucoumea klaineana, mixed forest and swamp forest. Two other vegetation types, secondary forest and riverine forest, exist in the outer fringes of the study site. The collected plants represent 451 species (296 genera, 91 families), of which 436 were identified completely. Nine plant species were added to the flora of the Chaillu Forest. A checklist of the vascular plants collected and identified in the Ngoua 2 Forest is provided. Key words: Flora, vegetation, Terminalia superba, Aucoumea klaineana, Chaillu Forest, Africa Serge V.

A global assessment of a large monocot family highlights the need for group-specific analyses of invasiveness. AoB PLANTS 8: plw009; doi:10.1093/aobpla/plw009 Abstract. Significant progress has been made in understanding biological invasions recently, and one of the key findings is that the determinants of naturalization and invasion success vary from group to group. Here, we explore this variation for one of the largest plant families in the world, the Araceae. This group provides an excellent oppor- tunity for identifying determinants of invasiveness in herbaceous plants, since it is one of the families most popular with horticulturalists, with species occupying various habitats and comprising many different life forms. We first devel- at University of Stellenosch on March 29, 2016 oped a checklist of 3494 species of Araceae using online databases and literature sources. We aimed to determine whether invasiveness across the introduction–naturalization–invasion continuum is associated to particular traits within the family, and whether analyses focussed on specific life forms can reveal any mechanistic correlates.

NeoBiota 52: 47–86. https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.52.38113 Abstract Horticulture is one of the main pathways of deliberate introduction of non-native plants, some of which might become invasive. Of the 914 commercial ornamental outdoor plant species sold in Spain, 700 (77%) are non-native (archaeophytes excluded) marketed species. We classified these into six different lists based on their invasion status in Spain and elsewhere, their climatic suitability in Spain and their potential environmental and socioeconomic impacts. We found sufficient information for 270 species. We provide a Priority List of eight regulated invasive species that were still available on the market. We also established an Attention List with 68 non-regulated invasive and potentially invasive species that might cause various impacts. To prioritise the species within the Attention List, we further assessed the risk of invasion of these species by using an adaptation of the Australian WRA protocol and the level of societal interest estimated from values of the Google Trends tool.
