Vargas Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Michigan, 830 N. University Avenue, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109, USA Integrative Biology and Plant Resources Center, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78712, USA ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: Chrissen E. C. Gemmill Abstract—A recent phylogenomic study has shown that Diplostephium in its broad sense is biphyletic. While one of the clades comprises 60 species distributed mainly in the Northern Andes, the clade that contains the generic type, Diplostephium ericoides,contains48species,andprimarilyinhabitsthe Central Andes. Here, I propose to reinstate the generic name Piofontia and transfer to it the species of Diplostephium in the Northern Andean clade. Piofontia consists, then, of 60 species of woody subshrubs, shrubs, and small trees inhabiting high Andean forests and p´aramos of Costa Rica, Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador. A morphological description is provided for the genus Piofontia along with a species list with 60 new combinations. Dysaster cajamarcensis is shown to be a synonym of Diplostephium serratifolium.

Tetramolopium Filiforme
16-162 16.27 Taxon Summary: Tetramolopium filiforme 2 Photographer: J. Jacobi 4 Scientific name: Tetramolopium filiforme Sherff var. filiforme and T. filiforme Sherff var. 6 polyphyllum (Sherff) Lowrey Hawaiian name: None known 8 Family: Asteraceae (Sunflower family) Federal status: Listed endangered 10 Description and biology: Tetramolopium filiforme is a dwarf shrub 5-15 cm (2-6 in) tall, and is 12 often mounded in shape. The narrow leaves are clustered at the branch tips, and measure 1-2 cm (0.4-0.8 in) long. The flower heads are purplish-white, and are held up above the foliage on long 14 slender stalks. The ray florets are female, and their rays are white to pale lavender. The disk florets are functionally male, and are colored maroon or rarely yellow. The achenes (a type of 16 dry, seed-like fruit) measure 2-2.7 mm (ca. 0.1 in) long, bear sparse short glandular hairs or are hairless, and are tipped with bristles almost as long as the achenes. 18 Flowering usually occurs in the late winter and spring (Lowrey 1986). The plants are capable of 20 self-pollination (Lowrey 1986). Tetramolopium filiforme is likely insect-pollinated, as are most conspicuous-flowered species in the sunflower family. 22 Tetramolopium filiforme is presumed to be wind-dispersed, as bristle-bearing achenes are 24 characteristic of the wind-dispersed members of the sunflower family. The species may additionally be bird-dispersed, as the bristles can cause the achenes to stick to birds’ feathers 26 (Lowrey 1995). Another characteristic of Tetramolopium achenes indicating dispersal by birds are sticky glandular hairs on the achenes, which would contribute to their adherence to feathers. -

Pamakani Tetramolopium Remyi
Plants Pamakani Tetramolopium remyi SPECIES STATUS: Federally Listed as Endangered Genetic Safety Net Species Hawai‘i Natural Heritage Ranking ‐ Critically Imperiled (G1) Endemism – Maui, Lana‘i Critical Habitat ‐ Designated SPECIES INFORMATION: Tetramolopium remyi, a member of the sunflower family (Asteraceae), is a much branched, decumbent or occasionally erect shrub up to 40 cm (15 in). The leaves are firm and very narrow, 1.5 to 3.5 cm long. There is one flower head per branch. Each flower head holds 70 to 100 yellow disk and 150 to 250 white ray florets. The whole plant is covered in sticky hairs. DISTRIBUTION: Aualua Ridge, Lana‘i. This species is also known historically from west Maui. ABUNDANCE: Currently about 20 plants observed. It is estimated that less than 100 plants exist. LOCATION AND CONDITION OF KEY HABITAT: This species is found in dry shrublands on ridgetops. Habitat degradation by invasive plants is a serious threat to this species since these small plants can be easily displaced by weedy invasive plant taxa. THREATS: Fires; Competition with invasive plant species, particularly Guinea grass; Browsing by deer and goats. CONSERVATION ACTIONS: The goals of conservation actions are not only to protect current populations, but also to establish new populations to reduce the risk of extinction. In addition to common statewide and island conservation actions, specific actions include: Survey historical range for surviving populations; Establish secure ex‐situ stocks with complete representation of remaining individuals; Augment wild population and establish new populations in safe harbors. MONITORING: Continue surveys of population and distribution in known and likely habitats; Monitor plants for insect damage and plant diseases. -
