Jack‐In‐The‐Pulpit Arisaema Triphyllum Plant with Spathe Ripe Fruit Jack‐in‐the‐pulpit Arisaema triphyllum Kingdom: Plantae FEATURES Division: Magnoliophyta The Jack‐in‐the‐pulpit, or Indian turnip, is a Class: Liliopsida perennial plant that grows from an underground Order: Arales corm. It does not have leaf‐bearing stems. The one or two leaves present grow from the base of the Family: Araceae plant and may reach more than one foot tall. Each ILLINOIS STATUS leaf is divided into three leaflets that are smooth and without teeth around the edges. The flowers common, native lack petals and are clustered together at the base of © Tracy Evans a cylindrical column, called a spadix. The spadix is covered by a leaflike structure that encircles it and arches over the top. This structure, called a spathe, may be green, purple or purple striped. This arrangement is how the common name of the plant was derived (the “Jack” or preacher in his covered pulpit). The fruit is a red berry.

Leaves 1–3, long petiolate; petiole usually mottled, stout, smooth or verrucose; leaf blade 3-foliolate, palmate, pedate, or radiate. Inflorescence borne with or before leaves, solitary, pedunculate, emerging from pseudostem in tuberous or some rhizomatous plants or separately from petiole and directly surrounded by cataphylls in some rhizomatous plants; peduncle (excluding part within pseudostem) erect, stout, usually shorter than or sometimes equaling or longer than petioles (excluding part forming pseudostem). Spathe tubular proximally, expanded limb distally, deciduous, withering or rarely semipersistent; throat of spathe tube often widely spreading outward, with or without an auricle on each side, margins of throat ciliate or not; spathe limb occasionally with a long tail at apex. Spadix sessile, unisexual or bisexual; bisexual spadix female proximally, male distally, neuter (sterile) flowers sometimes present on appendix; appendix variable in shape, base stipitate or not, apex sometimes ending in long filiform flagellum.

    PINELLIA, ARISAEMA, ACORUS, and TYPHONIUM by Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Director, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Portland, Oregon INTRODUCTION Pinellia, arisaema, acorus, and typhonium are Chinese herbs that all come from the Araceae family; they are the only members of this family that are used extensively in the Chinese medical system. Arisaema is the representative genus; in Chinese, the Araceae are known as the "tiannanxing" family, or the arisaema family. The underground portions (a corm-like rhizome) of each of the herbs are the parts used in medicine. All of these Chinese herbal medicines are characterized as being warming and phlegm-resolving. While each of the herbs have several uses, among the common applications is treatment of neurological disorders that are secondary to phlegm accumulation syndromes, such as epilepsy and post-stroke syndrome (see Table 1 for summary of actions and applications). The plants all produce toxic substances; some of these must be removed or counteracted by processing before using the medicinal part (in arisaema, pinellia, and typhonium). The leafy portions of all four plants, which are not used for internal medicine, are poisonous. TABLE 1: Summary of Actions and Sample Applications for the Araceae Herbs. The following information is obtained from Oriental Materia Medica (9), with slight editing of terms where it would clarify the meaning. Herbs Actions Applications harmonizes stomach, controls vomiting, cough and dyspnea, chest Pinellia vomiting, dries dampness, distention, stroke, phlegm-blockage

    162 THRIPS AND TOSPOVIRUSES: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 7TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON THYSANOPTERA 163 Sex-biased herbivory in Jack-in-the-pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum) by a specialist thrips (Heterothrips arisaemae) Ilka C. Feller2, Hiroshi Kudoh2,3, Christopher E. Tanner5 and Dennis F. Whigham2 2Smithsonian Environmental Research Center, Edgewater, MD 21037, USA; 3Current address: Department of Biological Sciences, Tokyo Metropolitan University, Minamiohsawa 1-1, Hachiohji-shi, Tokyo 192-03, JAPAN 5St. Mary’s College of Maryland, St. Mary’s City, MD 20686, USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: We document through observational, correlative, and experimental studies evidence of sex-biased herbivory in the gender-labile, functionally dioecious plant, Jack-in-the-pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum). Jack-in-the-pulpit is the host for a specialist thrips, Heterothrips arisaemae. Second instar larvae of this thrips feed on the abaxial surface of Jack-in-the-pulpit leaves. We found that the level of herbivory by H. arisaemae was dependent on the gender expressed by plants. Significantly more damage was found on leaves of male plants than on leaves of female and asexual plants. Concentration of total phenols and nitrogen concentrations of leaf tissue did not explain different herbivory levels between genders. Spathe removal significantly reduced thrips damage, particularly in male plants. Our results suggests that adult feeding behavior and developmental phenologies of H. arisaemae are major factors in determining the observed patterns of male-biased herbivory in Jack-in-the-pulpit, rather than differences in levels in defensive chemicals or nutritional quality of leaf tissue. Heterothrips arisaemae was the most common insect in Jack-in-the-pulpit spathes, and male plants consistently contained significantly more adult thrips and thrips eggs than female flowers.

Box 420 Trenton, NJ 08625-0420 Prepared by: Rebekah Buczynski [email protected] August 21, 2019 This report should be cited as follows: Buczynski, Rebekah. 2019. Streptopus lanceolatus Rare Plant Profile. New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Parks and Forestry, New Jersey Forest Service, Office of Natural Lands Management, New Jersey Natural Heritage Program, Trenton, NJ. 15 pp. Streptopus lanceolatus Rare Plant Profile, Page 2 of 15 Introduction Rosy Twisted-stalk is a NJ state endangered plant whose name can arguably be attributed to either its zigzag stem (Peterson and McKenny 1968 and Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center 2019 [hereafter, "LBJWC"]) or perhaps more accurately the arching angle of the flowering stalks (LBJWC 2019; Minnesota Wildflowers 2019 [hereafter, "MNWF"]). The translation of the Latin genus Streptopus is literally "Twisted foot" (USDA U.S. Forest Service 2019). One of the common names, "Scootberry" possibly refers to the purgative effect of consuming too much of the fruit (Flowering Plants in Voyageur Country 2007). Another point of taxonomic contention with this species is that Streptopus lanceolatus may be divided into several subordinate taxa depending upon where it exists in its range (MNWF 2019) but for the purposes of this profile we will simply refer to all variations as Streptopus lanceolatus.
