  • Outline of the Neotropical Infrageneric Taxa of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae)
    Outline of the neotropical infrageneric taxa of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) Grady L. Webster Section of Plant Biology, University of California, Davis, California, 95616, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. The 220 described neotropical species of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) are arranged in 33 sections belonging to 8 subgenera. Descriptions are given for one new subgenus, Cyclanthera, and five new sections – Antipodanthus, Salviniopsis, Pityrocladus, Hylaeanthus, and Sellowianthus. Three new subsections are described: sect. Phyllanthus subsect. Almadenses, sect. Phyllanthus subsect. Clausseniani; and sect. Choretropsis subsect. Choretropsis. Keys to species, and enumerations of them, are provided for new or revised sections and subsections. The 800-odd species of Phyllanthus, one of the larger genera of Euphorbiaceae, have recently been tabulated by Govaerts et al. (2000), but the subgenera and sections are not indicated. The first comprehensive arrangements of sections in Phyllanthus were published by Baillon (1858) and by Grisebach (1859). Jean Müller (1863, 1866, 1873) presented a much more sophisticated system involving sections and subsections; his arrangment was followed, almost unaltered, by Pax and Hoffmann (1931). Since then, the infrageneric taxa have been summarized by Webster (1956-58; 1967a) and by Webster and Airy Shaw 1971; for taxa in Australasia). Pollen characters have proved to be very important indicators of relationship (Webster, 1956, 1988; Punt, 1967, 1987). The outline proposed here reflects changes due to ongoing revision of the neotropical species of Phyllanthus (Webster, 1967b, 1968, 1970, 1978, 1984, 1988, 1991, 1999, 2001; and ined.). In addition to a key to the subgenera and sections, the 9 subgenera and their constituent sections are enumerated. Species are enumerated for most sections except for the West Indian taxa previously treated (Webster, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1991).

We describe a new hylid species of the genus Tepuihyla from Pantepui, northeastern South America. The new species inhabits the Chimantá Massif, Bolívar state, Venezuela. The new species is likely part of a recent non-adaptive ra- diation, and was confused for more than a decade with T. edelcae, a morphologically similar species occurring on the sum- mit of Auyán-tepui, Bolívar state, Venezuela. The new species is mainly distinguished from known congeners by phyloge- netic data, as well as a medium size (37.1 mm maximum SVL in males, 38.4 mm maximum SVL in females), diameter of eye greater than distance from nostril to eye, skin on dorsum smooth in females, with

    Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society Coping with the extremes: comparative osteology of the tepui-associated toad Oreophrynella and its bearing on the evolution of osteological novelties in the genus Journal: Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society Manuscript ID ZOJ-07-2019-3794 Manuscript Type:ForOriginal Review Article Only Keywords: Lissamphibia < Taxa, osteology < Anatomy The only study of the osteology of the toad genus Oreophrynella dates back to 1971 and was based on a single species. Here we use high resolution X-ray micro-computed tomography to analyse the osteology of all extant Oreophrynella species, which are compared to representatives of basal and derived bufonid lineages. Oreophrynella is unique among other bufonids in having opposable digits. Osteological synapomorphies confirmed for the genus are: presence of parietal/frontoparietal fontanelles; absence of quadratojugal; five presacral vertebrae; distally enlarged terminal phalanges; urostyle greatly expanded into flanges. Ancestral character reconstruction indicates that arboreal habits in some Abstract: Oreophrynella species likely evolved following the evolution of opposable digits, arboreality possibly being an exaptation. Opposable digits, in combination with the extension of the interdigital integument, and the relative length/orientation of the digits are possible adaptations to facilitate life on tepui summits. Cranial simplification in Oreophrynella, in the form of cranial fontanelles and absence of jugal/quadratojugal, is possibly driven by a reduction
