WEBBIA Journal of Plant Taxonomy and Geography 0083-7792 WEBBIA Journal of Plant June 2020 Vol. 75 - n. 1 Taxonomy and Geography FIRENZE PRESSUNIVERSITY Poste Italiane spa - Tassa pagata - Piego di libro Tassa Italiane spa - Poste 072/DCB/FI1/VF del 31.03.2005 n. Aut. Journal of Plant Taxonomy and Geography (Webbia) is a peer-reviewed journal on Plant Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Phylogeny, Phytogeogra- phy and Paleobotany. Most of the contributions deal with the Vascular Plants, but sometime contributions on Briophytes, Lichenes, Fungi and Algae are encouraged. The journal aims to allow research in botanical topics such as taxonomy, systematics, nomenclature, molecular phylogeny, conservation, biogeog- raphy, and history of botany, and botanical collections. It was founded in 1905 in Florence by Ugolino Martelli (1860-1934), a botanist well known for his studies of and contributions to the systemat- ics of the tropical genus Pandanus and on the Flora of Sardinia. In the 19th century Florence represented one of the most important European centres in Plant Taxonomy and Phytogeography with several nota- ble Italian botanists worth mentioning such as Filippo Parlatore, Teodoro Caruel, Eugenio Baroni, Stefano Sommier, Odoardo Beccari and Ugoli- no Martelli himself. In 1842 Filippo Parlatore (1817-1877) founded in Florence the Herbarium Centrale Italicum (FI), which soon became one of the most important herbaria in the world. Most of the specimens described and/or cited in Webbia are still kept in it. In 1905, and as a consequence of this multitude of activities in Plant Systematics and Phytogeography, Ugolino Martelli established the journal Webbia-Raccolta di Scritti Botanici, firstly published annually in a single issue, and later twice a year. Webbia also began to be a place of publica- tion of contributions from Tropical Botany, especially after the Royal Colonial Herbarium founded in 1904 in Rome was moved to Florence in 1914, currently named Tropical Herbarium Study Center (Centro Studi Erbario Tropicale - Herbarium FT) belonging to the Department of Biol- ogy of the University of Florence. Webbia had been created in honor of Philip Barker Webb (1793-1845), a close friend of Filippo Parlatore, who before passing away entrusted his personal herbarium and a library rich of old botanical books and publications to the then Botanical Museum in Florence.

Today the Alpine range is still alive. Seismic activity and uplift show active tectonic movements among plates. The progressive destruction of mountain relief by different erosional processes is anot her illustration of it. The Cottian Alps The Cottian Alps were an ancient imperial Roman province. Cottius, the Celto-Ligurian king who was allied to Rome, gave them his name. This part of the French-Italian Alps lies between the Graian Alps (to the north) and the Maritime Alps (to the south). To visit the Geoparc... Discover the sites and museums of the Geoparc by car, on foot or on a mountain bike, on your own or with a local guide.

Altogether 1,102 specimens were collected and determined (180 queens, 227 males, and 695 workers) belonging to 30 species - two of which are represented by two subspecies - which account for 70% of those known in Italy, demonstrating the particular value of the area examined with regard to environmental quality and biodiversity. Bombus soroeensis (F.), Bombus me- somelas Gerstaecker, Bombus ruderarius (Mueller), Bombus monticola Smith, Bombus pratorum (L.), Bombus lucorum (L.), Bombus terrestris (L.), and Bombus lapidarius (L.) can be considered predominant, each one representing more than 5% of the collected specimens, 12 species are rather common (1-5% of specimens) and the remaining nine rare (less than 1%). A list of col- lected specimens with collection localities and dates is provided. To illustrate more clearly the altitudinal distribution of the dif- ferent species, the capture locations were grouped by altitude. 83.5% of the samples is also provided with data on the plant on which they were collected, comprising a total of 52 plant genera within 20 plant families.

  • Ferrocarpholite from Colle Ciarbonet (Cottian Alps)
    90o SHORT COMMUNICATIONS MINERALOGICAL MAGAZINE, DECEMBER I976, VOL. 40, PP. 900-2 Ferrocarpholite from Colle Ciarbonet (Cottian Alps) DURING a petrographical investigation of the uranium-bearing high-pressure meta- morphic rocks of the Acceglio Zone, E. Zanettin (i96o) cursorily described the first occurrence of carpholite in the Western Alps at Colle Ciarbonet. The mineral occurs in calcite-quartz knobs and lenses to be found in the sheared zones of a horizon of Permian muscovite-chlorite phyllitic schists that underwent metamorphism at high pressure resulting in the scattered formation of lawsonite. Carpholite forms strongly elongated, fibrous prisms, bright green in colour, macroscopically indistinguishable from an actinolitic amphibole. It was identified through the following optical pro- perties: colourless in thin section, medium birefringent with negative optic sign, 2V~ 7 o~ 7 : [ooI] 2 ~ maximum index of refraction less than I"635. Carpholite s.s., the Mn-rich variety of the carpholite group of minerals (Mn,Mg, Fe") AI2[(OH)4]Si20~], has never been described in Italy whereas ferrocarpholite appears to be common in Calabria, southern Italy, sometimes in occurrences similar to that of Colle Ciarbonet (de Roever et al., I967, I97I). In view of the possible significance of ferrocarpholite as the alleged equivalent of the chloritoid+quartz-- water assemblage at high pressure (de Roever and Kieft, i97i), as well as of the incompleteness of another alpine description (Goff6 et al., I973), it seemed worth while to carry out a thorough investigation of the Colle Ciarbonet occurrence, so as to verify whether carpholite actually is present in the western Alps as well as to give new data on the distribution of a mineral the significance of which in metamorphism is far from being entirely understood.

  • The Permian Formation in the Alps of Piémont, Dauphiné, and Savoy
    Dr. Du Biche Preller—Permian in the Alps. 7 as at Bourg d'Oisans, has been noted by other writers. Here, too, the mineral so abundant in the green veins of Penmaenmawr, which Schaub has determined as prehnite,1 is at times seen to be intimately associated with the axinite. It has a lower refractive index and higher birefringence than the latter, and where cleavage-traces are developed it extinguishes parallel thereto (001). A genetic relation- ship between the two minerals appears to be indicated. In all the cases which I have seen recorded hitherto the gaseous boron-bearing emanations leading to the production of axinite have followed the intrusion of a granite magma. At Penmaenmawr the magma was of intermediate calc-alkalic character. It is assumed that here, too, the hot gases charged with boron-compounds reacted on the original lime-bearing minerals of the veins, releasing the silica and forming new combinations with the lime and other constituents, and that thus the secondary mineralization of the axinite veins was essentially effected. In the Cornish greenstones the production of axinite is usually accompanied by " one or more of the following minerals, pyroxene, epidote, hornblende, garnet, quartz, and felspar, while zoisite, zincblende, sphene, and fluor-spar are sometimes present ".J With the exception of quartz, a soda-lime felspar, and a little epidote, none of these minerals has been observed in the axinite veins of Penmaenmawr. The green and other veins, which are so abundant at Penmaenmawr and have been previously described, as mentioned above, consist predominantly of micropegmatite and orthoclase, with, subordinate plagioclase, augite, ilmenite, biotite, and apatite.
