  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Epidermal Morphology of the Pinnae of Angiopteris, Danaea, and Maraffia
    American Fern Journal 81(2]:44-62 (1991) Epidermal Morphology of the Pinnae of Angiopteris, Danaea, and Maraffia CRISTINAROLLERI,AMVIBLIA DEFERRARI, AND MAR~ADEL CARMENLAVALLE Laboratory of Botany, Museo de La Plata, Paseo del Bosque, 1900 La Plata, Argentina This is a study of adult epidermis morphology in 17 species of Angiopteris Hoffm., Danaea J. E. Smith, and Marattia Swartz. Epidermal patterns, adult stomata, indument, and idioblasts were studied. Hill and Camus (1986) made an overview of characters of some extant species of Marattiales as part of a cladistic study of extant and fossil members of the order. The epidermal characters they used were subsidiary cells of the stomata, dimensions of the stomata, walls of epidermal cells, and idioblasts. The only character of indument they included in their study was the presence or absence of scales. Rolleri et al. (1987) made the first detailed study dealing with pinna and pinnule indument in the Marattiaceae, although Holttum (1978) had made some general comments on petiole and rhizome scales of Angiopteris, illustrating two species. He suggested that Angiopteris pinna trichomes were diagnostic but needed detailed study. Rolleri et al. (1987) strongly pointed out that epidermal characters are diagnostic at the species level in the Marattiaceae and speculated on generic affinities within the Marattiales. Adult epidermis was described according to the terminology of Rolleri and Deferrari (1986) and Rolleri et al. (1987). Adult stomata were described following the criteria of Stace (1965),van Cotthem (1970, 1971),and Wilkinson (1979). Lellinger's (1985) concept of trichomes was adopted, as well as the terminology of Theobald et al.

In this study, is described the development of stipular buds in a population of Danaea nodosa located into a gallery forest of the Brazilian savanna. From June 2006 to July 2007 40 individuals were monitored and 13 of them presented stipular buds. The formation of stipular buds was observed in August and September 2006, a time corresponding to the end of the dry season. In only two individuals, the stipular buds evolved to ramets. An additional survey conducted in April 2008, revealed that the ramets continued to product new leaves. This study provides an important information about the reproductive strategy of the species under natural conditions, which can guide future researches with conservationist purposes to native ferns. Key words: adventicious buds, clonal propagation, ferns, vegetative shoots. Resumo A ocorrência de brotos estipulares em Marattiaceae tem sido observada por diferentes autores, geralmente sob condições de cultivo. Neste estudo, é descrito o desenvolvimento de brotos estipulares em uma população de Danaea nodosa localizada em uma Mata de Galeria no Cerrado brasileiro. De junho de 2006 a julho de 2007, 40 indivíduos foram monitorados e 13 destes apresentaram brotos estipulares. A formação dos brotos estipulares foi observada em agosto e setembro de 2006, período correspondente ao final da estação seca.

    Fern Gazette V17 P4 v9.qxd 01/02/2006 09:51 Page 217 FERN GAZ. 17(4): 217-222. 2005 217 SOME NOTES ON THE TAXONOMY, BIOGEOGRAPHY AND ECOLOGY OF DANAEA (MARATTIACEAE) M.J.M. CHRISTENHUSZ1 & H. TUOMISTO2 Department of Biology, University of Turku, FI-20014 Turku, Finland, (Email: [email protected], [email protected]) Key words: Biogeography, Danaea, ecology, Marattiaceae, Neotropics, phylogeny, taxonomy. ABSTRACT The neotropical genus Danaea is in revision and some notes on the genus are presented here. We find that the genus can be divided into three subgroups, based on morphological characters of the rhizome, stipe articulation and pinna margin serration. The tree groups are discussed and some taxonomic issues are addressed. The occurrence of bipinnate D. nodosa is reported from Jamaica, and trifoliate specimens of D. simplicifolia are reported from French Guiana. The identities of D. alata, D. jamaicensis, D. jenmanii, D. mazeana, D. media, D. nodosa, D. trifoliata and D. ulei and their synonyms are discussed. Further studies on the phylogeny, taxonomy and ecology of Danaea are needed. INTRODUCTION The genus Danaea Sm. is one of the few genera of ferns confined to the Western Hemisphere. It has been repeatedly observed that species limits within the genus are poorly understood, and that the genus is in great need of monographic study (e.g., Morton, 1951, Kramer, 1978). De Vriese & Harting (1853) monographed the Marattiaceae but excluded Danaea, which was at the time, placed in a separate family: the Danaeaceae. Underwood (1902) revised the North American species, and the Ecuadorian species were recently revised by Tuomisto and Moran (2001), but many taxonomic problems remain.

We present a revised classification for extant ferns, with emphasis on ordinal and familial ranks, and a synop- sis of included genera. Our classification reflects recently published phylogenetic hypotheses based on both morphological and molecular data. Within our new classification, we recognize four monophyletic classes, 11 monophyletic orders, and 37 families, 32 of which are strongly supported as monophyletic. One new family, Cibotiaceae Korall, is described. The phylogenetic affinities of a few genera in the order Polypodiales are unclear and their familial placements are therefore tentative. Alphabetical lists of accepted genera (including common synonyms), families, orders, and taxa of higher rank are provided. KEYWORDS: classification, Cibotiaceae, ferns, monilophytes, monophyletic. INTRODUCTION Euphyllophytes Recent phylogenetic studies have revealed a basal dichotomy within vascular plants, separating the lyco- Lycophytes Spermatophytes Monilophytes phytes (less than 1% of extant vascular plants) from the euphyllophytes (Fig.

  • Studies of Tropical American Ferns-No. 2
    STUDIES OF TROPICAL AMERICAN FERNS-NO. 2. BY WILLIAM R. MAXON. INTRODUCTION, The following paper is in continuation of " Studies of tropical American ferns/' of which the first number was published in volume 10a of the Contributions from the IL S* National Herbarium, and is along the lines indicated in the introduction to that number, NOTES UPON FERNS RECENTLY COLLECTED IN GUATEMALA BY BARON VON TURCKHEIM, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF SEV- ERAL NEW SPECIES. At intervals during the past year and more the writer has examined with great interest a considerable number of well-prepared Guate- malan ferns, collected by Baron H, von Turckheim, mainly in the humid mountain region of Alta Verapaz. A large proportion of these, particularly of those first studied, were courteously forwarded for examination by Capt. John Donnell Smith, whose ferns, out of his entire herbarium presented to the Smithsonian Institution several years ago, have recently been incorporated in the U- S. National Herbarium. The other specimens, received directly from Baron von Turckheim, include a few not seen in Captain Smith's collection. Altogether, the plants are the most interesting series which it has been the writer's privilege to examine from any part of Central America, serving, as they do, to indicate a rather close relationship between the fern flora of eastern Guatemala and that of the similarly humid belt of eastern Mexico at mid-elevations—the latter a region not very adequately explored, at least for ferns, since Liebmann's time. Examples of this are found in the notable extension of range for Diplazium ternatum, known previously only from Oaxaca, Mexico, and in the additional material from Vera Cruz of several of the new species based upon Baron von Turckheim's specimens.
