  • Notes on Cryptocoryne
    Notes on Cryptocoryne BY T. Petch, B.A., B.Sc. WITH FOUR PLATES The genus Cryptocoryne (Araceae) was established by Fischer for the reception of two Indian species, Cryptocoryne spiralis and Crypto- coryne ciliata, which had been described under Ambrosinia by Roxburgh. Additional species were described by Roxburgh, Schott, and other botanists, while in Beccari, Malesia, Engler described eleven new species from Borneo and gave a conspectus of twenty-four known species. In Flora British India, Hooker enumerated sixteen species, and in Flora of Ceylon, five species. The total number of species is now over thirty, confined to the Eastern Tropics. For our knowledge of the structure of the flower we are indebted almost entirely to Griffith, who recorded the results of his examination of fresh specimens of Cryptocoryne ciliata in Trans. Linn. Soc., XX, pp. 263-276. The spadix is small, and it is not easy to determine the details of its structure from dried specimens. Consequently, very little has been added to Griffith's account, and a detailed examination of the living flower is still lacking in the case of the majority of the alleged species. In Ceylon, Cryptocoryne has been considered very rare. Crypto- coryne Thwaitesii Schott, hitherto the best-known species, occurs in the wet low-country in the south-west of the Island. C. Nevillii Trimen was described from a single collection made by Nevill in the Eastern Province. C. Beckettii Thwaites was collected in 1865 in Matale East, and there are two subsequent collections assigned to this species in Herb., Peradeniya. The record of C.

  • History and Current Status of Systematic Research with Araceae
    HISTORY AND CURRENT STATUS OF SYSTEMATIC RESEARCH WITH ARACEAE Thomas B. Croat Missouri Botanical Garden P. O. Box 299 St. Louis, MO 63166 U.S.A. Note: This paper, originally published in Aroideana Vol. 21, pp. 26–145 in 1998, is periodically updated onto the IAS web page with current additions. Any mistakes, proposed changes, or new publications that deal with the systematics of Araceae should be brought to my attention. Mail to me at the address listed above, or e-mail me at [email protected]. Last revised November 2004 INTRODUCTION The history of systematic work with Araceae has been previously covered by Nicolson (1987b), and was the subject of a chapter in the Genera of Araceae by Mayo, Bogner & Boyce (1997) and in Curtis's Botanical Magazine new series (Mayo et al., 1995). In addition to covering many of the principal players in the field of aroid research, Nicolson's paper dealt with the evolution of family concepts and gave a comparison of the then current modern systems of classification. The papers by Mayo, Bogner and Boyce were more comprehensive in scope than that of Nicolson, but still did not cover in great detail many of the participants in Araceae research. In contrast, this paper will cover all systematic and floristic work that deals with Araceae, which is known to me. It will not, in general, deal with agronomic papers on Araceae such as the rich literature on taro and its cultivation, nor will it deal with smaller papers of a technical nature or those dealing with pollination biology.

Although it has a high market demand, the natural propagation of its aquatic species is limited due to the limited production on the number of plants with a long cultivation period, disease, and the requirement for a large space for propagation. Thus, we studied the effects of the plant growth regulators and their concentrations on the induction of direct shoot organogenesis from shoot tip explants of Cryptocoryne wendtii. The shoot tips were sterilized on its surface using 8 % Clorox® (5.25 % sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl) for 15 min followed by rinsing them three times with sterile distilled water. They were again sterilized on the surface for another 4 % Clorox® (5.25 % sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl) for 5 min.

  • Taxonomy and Conservation Status of Pteridophyte Flora of Sri Lanka R.H.G
    Taxonomy and Conservation Status of Pteridophyte Flora of Sri Lanka R.H.G. Ranil and D.K.N.G. Pushpakumara University of Peradeniya Introduction The recorded history of exploration of pteridophytes in Sri Lanka dates back to 1672-1675 when Poul Hermann had collected a few fern specimens which were first described by Linneus (1747) in Flora Zeylanica. The majority of Sri Lankan pteridophytes have been collected in the 19th century during the British period and some of them have been published as catalogues and checklists. However, only Beddome (1863-1883) and Sledge (1950-1954) had conducted systematic studies and contributed significantly to today’s knowledge on taxonomy and diversity of Sri Lankan pteridophytes (Beddome, 1883; Sledge, 1982). Thereafter, Manton (1953) and Manton and Sledge (1954) reported chromosome numbers and some taxonomic issues of selected Sri Lankan Pteridophytes. Recently, Shaffer-Fehre (2006) has edited the volume 15 of the revised handbook to the flora of Ceylon on pteridophyta (Fern and FernAllies). The local involvement of pteridological studies began with Abeywickrama (1956; 1964; 1978), Abeywickrama and Dassanayake (1956); and Abeywickrama and De Fonseka, (1975) with the preparations of checklists of pteridophytes and description of some fern families. Dassanayake (1964), Jayasekara (1996), Jayasekara et al., (1996), Dhanasekera (undated), Fenando (2002), Herat and Rathnayake (2004) and Ranil et al., (2004; 2005; 2006) have also contributed to the present knowledge on Pteridophytes in Sri Lanka. However, only recently, Ranil and co workers initiated a detailed study on biology, ecology and variation of tree ferns (Cyatheaceae) in Kanneliya and Sinharaja MAB reserves combining field and laboratory studies and also taxonomic studies on island-wide Sri Lankan fern flora.

Reporting Period: November 1 2003- 31 August 2005 Section 6 Final Report- Revised. R. Doyle- Grant E-45 (4/7/2006) I. ABSTRACT Efforts have continued on the lower San Marcos River to eradicate the invasive exotic aquatic plant Cryptocoryne beckettii and to re-establish desirable native plants to provide habitat and cover for fish and invertebrate species. During the 2002-2003 dredging operations were initiated under other funding to remove C. beckettii from San Marcos River. Prior to the initiation of the Section 6 project, approximately 132 m2 of the exotic species was removed by human-operated dredging efforts. The Section 6 Project provided funds for continuing the dredge removal operations during the fall of 2003 and spring –summer 2004. During the Section 6 project period, approximately 515 additional m2 of C. beckettii were removed from the section of the San Marcos River downriver of the “powerline” and in the vicinity of the San Marcos Waste Water Treatment Plant. This effort was accomplished by use of a suction dredge operated for 62 days by paid field assistants.

    Cryptocoryne beckettii Authors: Mandy Tu, Global Invasive Species Team, The Nature Conservancy Contents [hide] 1 Identifiers 2 Stewardship summary o 2.1 Impacts 3 Natural history o 3.1 Description o 3.2 Reproduction o 3.3 Range 4 Management/Monitoring 5 Information sources o 5.1 Bibliography . 5.1.1 Source document Identifiers Latin Names: Cryptocoryne beckettii Thwaites ex Trimen Common Names: watertrumpet The genus name Cryptocoryne is derived from the Latin crypto, meaning hidden, and the Greek koryne, meaning club. The common name (watertrumpet) refers to the shape of its inflorescence, which is typical of the arum family. There are currently no accepted synonyms for C. beckettii. Stewardship summary Cryptocoryne beckettii has been recently observed invading the San Marcos River in Texas, and there are (unconfirmed) reports of it in Florida. (Cryptocoryne wendtii is established in the wild in Florida, where it is not native (Atlas of Florida vascular plants, 2000).) Cryptocoryne beckettii is thought to have escaped from cultivation via the dumping of aquariums. Its potential range as an invader in North America is uncertain, but it may easily expand throughout the Gulf coastal plain, Florida, and the southern Atlantic coastal plain. Native to southeastern Asia, C. beckettii is an attractive herb in the arum family (Araceae), and which has been one of the most popular aquarium plants for more than 60 years (Bastmeijer, 2001; Tropica Aquarium Plants, 2001). Since the confident identification of members in this rely on floral characters, the plants in Texas (which were not flowering) should not be considered absolutely certain (Bastmeijer, 2001).

  • Understanding the Impacts of Invasive Non-Native Species on Protected Sites
    Improvement Programme for England’s Natura 2000 Sites (IPENS) – Planning for the Future IPENS 046 Understanding the impacts of invasive non-native species on protected sites Report covers all Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and Special Protection Area (SPA) within England First published 01 January 2014 www.gov.uk/government/publications/improvement-programme-for-englands-natura-2000-sites-ipens This project is part of the IPENS programme (LIFE11NAT/UK/000384IPENS) which is financially supported by LIFE, a financial instrument of the European Community. Foreword The Improvement Programme for England’s Natura 2000 sites (IPENS), supported by European Union LIFE+ funding, is a new strategic approach to managing England’s Natura 2000 sites. It is enabling Natural England, the Environment Agency, and other key partners to plan what, how, where and when they will target their efforts on Natura 2000 sites and areas surrounding them. As part of the programme we identified gaps in our knowledge and have commissioned a range of projects to help us fill these gaps. The project findings are being used to help develop our Theme Plans and Site Improvement Plans. This report is one of the project studies we commissioned. Invasive non-native species (INNS) are considered the second biggest threat to global biodiversity - following habitat loss - causing impacts through consumption, resource competition, introduction of diseases, interbreeding and disturbance. They can have economic, agricultural and health impacts, with an estimated cost to the English economy of at least £1.3 billion per year. They also present a significant risk to the favourable condition of England’s protected sites.

D. de Wit ,Jh. / Mainly on Cryptocoryne As a result of efforts to grow Cryptocoryne spp. though in Cr. lutea the leaves seem, generally, at the National Agricultural College at Wage­ somewhat wider. They are never marked by pur­ ningen, Holland, with the purpose of obtaining ply striations indicating transverse veinlets. The flowering specimens, Mr Legro and I made some margin of fully developed submerged leaves is observations which will be published more fully later in the year in the dutch periodical ,.Het Aquarium", but may be briefly referred to here at present. In the second half of the winter 1955 /56, the following species flowered: Cr. beckettii Thw. ex Trim., Cr. lutea Alston, Cr. nevillii Trim., and Cr. willisii Engl. ex Baum. / It was now possible to compare Cr. lutea closely to Cr. beckettii. This was needed as Al­ ston, on publishing his Cr. lutea as a new spe­ cies, suggested that it might prove to be identical with Cr. beckettii. It was, moreover, quite inte­ resting to have Cr. lutea in flower, as it was, we believe, the first time that a specimen flowered in Europe. Cr. beckettii, a Ceylonese species, flo­ wers easily, if cultivated for that purpose, in the right way. Cr. beckettii - if fully developed submerged - shows leaves with widely undulating recurved margins; the blade always is, more or less, olive green above, and the lower surface is usually purplish or brownish. If cultivated on moist soil, emerse, the leaves are shorter and wider, darker green, though they often retain some scattered purple striations a long the transverse connecting veinlets on the upper surface, as is usually also seen on submerged leaves.
