Ranarivelo, 2017 1 ABSTRACT Psorospermum belongs to the tribe Vismieae (Hypericaceae). Morphologically, Psorospermum is very similar to Harungana, which also belongs to Vismieae along with another genus, Vismia. Interestingly, Harungana occurs in both Madagascar and mainland Africa, as does Psorospermum; Vismia occurs in both Africa and the New World. However, the phylogeny of the tribe and the relationship between the three genera are uncertain.

While many studies have shown elevational patterns in species richness and species turnover, little is known about how multi- species interactions respond to elevation. An understanding of how species interactions are affected by current clines in climate is imperative if we are to make predictions about how ecosystem function and stability will be affected by climate change. This challenge has been addressed here by focussing on a set of intimately interacting species: leaf-mining insects, their host plants and their parasitoid predators. Herbivorous insects, including leaf miners, and their host plants and parasitoids interact in diverse and complex ways, but relatively little is known about how the nature and strengths of these interactions change along climatic gradients.

  • Comparison of Different Classifications on the Celastraceae
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICLJLTURE AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH SERVICE NORTHEASTERN REGlON AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH CENTER BELTSVILLE. MARYLAND 20705 Novenber 7, 1974 / Subject: ConpadSon of Different Classifications on the Celastraceae in Africa with Discussions on the Status of Gymnosporia and Other Genera To : R. E. Perdue, Jr., Chief ,.. Medicinal Plant Resources ~aboratory Currently, the taxonomy of the Celastraceae is in a state of confusion. A few recent revisions limited mostly ,to political boundaries, have helped to clarify the systematics in a few genera; however, the continued disagreement among generic relationships seems to make it nore difficult for the non-specialist. Because of special efforts to procure plant samples in this family, frequent synonomy has led to confusion as well as duplica- tion, especially in Africa where a number of samples have been received from floristically related countries in which different authorities are recogcized for the Celastracean Flora. This report, primarily, will 'deal with the systematic problems of the African Celasrrtseae. Until recently, the Hippocrateaceae was treated as a separate family from the Celastraceae (Smith, 1940; Loesener, 1942; Wilczek, 1960; Hallee, 1962). L Robson (1965, 1966), Ding Hou (1963, 1964), Blakelock (1958), and Codd (1972) have united the Hippocrateaceae with the Celastraceae; but, their reasons for uniting the two families are not in agreement. The Celastraceae is believed by Codd and Kobson to comprise about 60 to 70 genera, but Ding Hou has indicated that there are about 90 genera. For the purpose of identifying two major complexes, which taxonomists are not in agreement, I will refer to the Celastraceae and Hippocrateaceae as two separate families.

NESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, TX 76109, USA www.guynesom.com ABSTRACT Euonymus fortunei is documented here for the first time to occur outside of cultivation in Texas. The population, which is perhaps a large clone spread from an original planting, is in Overton Park in the central part of Fort Worth. Flowers and fruits have not been observed. Color photos are included. KEY WORDS: Euonymus fortunei, Celastraceae, naturalized, Texas Euonymus fortunei (Turcz.) Hand.-Mazz. Winter creeper, climbing euonymus Texas. Tarrant Co.: Fort Worth, Overton Park near intersection of Owenwood Drive and Glenwood Drive, terrace bank on south side of Overton Creek, along 60 feet of embankment and covering ca. 600-800 square feet, apparently spread downslope from original plantings near a house ca. 50 feet above, in a thicket of Prunus caroliniana, Photinia serratifolia, Ligustrum lucidum, Ligustrum quihoui, Nandina domestica, under Ulmus crassifolia and young Bumelia lanuginosa and Celtis laevigata, with Hedera helix, the euonymus also spreading out of the thicket into adjacent mowed areas, 18 May 2009, G.L. Nesom 2010-01 (BRIT, OKL, TEX, to be deposited). Euonymus fortunei is an evergreen, trailing or scandent subshrub native to southeastern Asia. At the Overton Park site, it densely covers the ground, intermixed in one area with Hedera helix, and has grown nearly 10 feet out of the thicket into grassy areas into a constantly mowed area.
