SIGNA: Species Iris Group of North America 31Th Species Seed Exchange SIGNA: Species Iris Group of North America 1997 o 31th Species Seed Exchange Greetings: Orders will be filled in the order received. Return immediately for the best selection. Our first shipment of seeds will begin January 10. Orders received after that date will be filled as time permits. No orders will be filled if received after March 1, 1998. After each item in the seed list you will find a number estimating the total number of seeds available. Donations with fewer than 100 seeds will most likely be sold out early. Be sure to check substitutes when ordering any of these seeds. They will not be used as substitutes. Seeds in short supply may be packed with as few as 4 seeds. If you want items with more seeds per packet, order items in greater supply. Please note the following abreviations used in the seedlist: H P means Hand Pollinated, coli. means Wild Collected, and ex. indicates that the plants that seeds were collected from were originally from another source (which may be a person, another seed exchange, or a wild location) which immediately follows the abbreviation. The alphabetical groups (A, B, C, etc.) used in the seed list follow the outline provided in the SIGNA Species Iris Study Manual'publlshed in 1972, e.g. sub-section Pogoniris, series Pumilae is under A, sub-section Pogoniris, series Intermedeae in under B and so on. The Study Manual , The Iris by Brian Mathew, and Iris of China by James Waddick and Zhao Yu-tang are used as references when verifying names. In a few instances, we included names which we were unable to verify. *Please note: The aril seeds marked with an • are not fresh, they are at least 10 years old. It is possible to germinate them, but they require special treatment. See SIGNA # 51 , p. 1874 for special germination information.

There are several small, isolated species clusters at the basal nodes of the tree that are all restricted to the winter-rainfall zone of southern Africa (the Greater Cape floral kingdom) and a few, highly derived, large species groups that have radiated extensively within the winter-rainfall zone. Mapping of floral traits shows that an Iris-type flower is ancestral in Moraea.

  • Systematics of the Hypervariable Moraea Tripetalacomplex
    Bothalia 42,2: 111– 135 (2012) Systematics of the hypervariable Moraea tripetala complex (Iridaceae: Iridoideae) of the southern African winter rainfall zone P. gOLDBLATT* and J.C. MAnnIng** Keywords: Chromosome cytology, Iridaceae, Iridoideae, Moraea Mill., new species, southern Africa, taxonomy ABSTRACT Field and laboratory research has shown that the Moraea tripetala complex of western South Africa, traditionally treated as a single species, sometimes with two additional varieties, has a pattern of morphological and cytological variation too complex to be accommodated in a single species. Variation in floral structure, especially the shape of the inner tepals, degree of union of the filaments, anther length and pollen colour form coherent patterns closely correlated with morphology of the corm tunics, mode of vegetative reproduction, and in some instances capsule and seed shape and size. The morphological patterns also correlate with geography, flowering time and sometimes habitat. It is especially significant that different vari- ants of the complex may co-occur, each with overlapping or separate flowering times, a situation that conflicts with a single species taxonomy. We propose recognizing nine species and three additional subspecies for plants currently assigned to M. tripetala. M. grandis, from the western Karoo, has virtually free filaments and leaves often ± plane distally; closely allied M. amabilis, also with ± free filaments and often hairy leaves, is centred in the western Karoo and Olifants River Valley. Its range overlaps that of M. cuspidata, which has narrowly channelled, smooth leaves, linear inner tepals spreading distally and filaments united for up to 1.5 mm.M. decipiens from the Piketberg, M. hainebachiana, a local endemic of coastal limestone fynbos in the Saldanha District, M.

    Moraea insolens | Plantz Africa about:reader?url=http://pza.sanbi.org/moraea-insolens pza.sanbi.org Moraea insolens | Plantz Africa Introduction Moraea insolens is a critically endangered, cormous plant, with dazzling orange-red or rarely white- or cream-coloured, salver-shaped blooms, with prominent, deep brown markings to attract its beetle pollinators. It is very rare in cultivation, but can be successfully grown as a container subject. Description Description This deciduous, winter-growing geophyte grows 200–350 mm high and has a small, rounded corm, protected by a covering of hard, light brown outer tunics. The corm produces two, dark brown, basal sheaths and has a solitary, linear, bright green, channelled leaf. The slender flower stem has prominent nodes and is sometimes branched, 1 of 7 2017/02/15 02:42 PM Moraea insolens | Plantz Africa about:reader?url=http://pza.sanbi.org/moraea-insolens producing a succession of salver-shaped flowers, each lasting three days, from between two spathe bracts. The tepals vary in shades of light to bright orange-red and are rarely white or cream-coloured. The three outer tepals are larger than the three inner ones and all are adorned with a deep brown, arrow-shaped marking near the base, sometimes outlined in white. The filaments are united into a central column with three long anthers symmetrically arranged opposite the three outer tepals. The anthers produce sticky, bright orange pollen. The fruit is an elliptic capsule containing many small, light brown, irregularly shaped seeds. The plant flowers from mid- to late spring (mid-September to mid-October) and is completely dormant in summer.

WILSON Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, 1500 North College Avenue, Claremont, California 91711-3157, USA (carol. wilson@ cgu. edu) ABSTRACT Subgeneric groups have been circumscribed in Iris based on a small number of morphological characters. Recent DNA sequence data has indicated that several of the subgenera, sections, and series that have previously been delineated are paraphyletic or polyphyletic. The evolution of characters that have traditionally been used to distinguish sub generic and sectional groups within Iris was investigated by mapping these characters on a phylogenetic tree based on matK sequence data. Results indicate that rhizomes are pleisomorphic for the genus and that three bulb types have arisen independently. My analysis shows that sepal beards, sepal crests, and seed arils show extensive homoplasy. Most of the homoplasy seen is associated with the circumscription of polyphyletic subgeneric groups such as the beardless subgenus Limniris. Some additional homoplasy is due to diversity within supported clades or the historical use of a single character in circumscribing more than one subgeneric group.

  • JUDD W.S. Et. Al. (1999) Plant Systematics
    CHAPTER8 Phylogenetic Relationships of Angiosperms he angiosperms (or flowering plants) are the dominant group of land Tplants. The monophyly of this group is strongly supported, as dis- cussed in the previous chapter, and these plants are possibly sister (among extant seed plants) to the gnetopsids (Chase et al. 1993; Crane 1985; Donoghue and Doyle 1989; Doyle 1996; Doyle et al. 1994). The angio- sperms have a long fossil record, going back to the upper Jurassic and increasing in abundance as one moves through the Cretaceous (Beck 1973; Sun et al. 1998). The group probably originated during the Jurassic, more than 140 million years ago. Cladistic analyses based on morphology, rRNA, rbcL, and atpB sequences do not support the traditional division of angiosperms into monocots (plants with a single cotyledon, radicle aborting early in growth with the root system adventitious, stems with scattered vascular bundles and usually lacking secondary growth, leaves with parallel venation, flow- ers 3-merous, and pollen grains usually monosulcate) and dicots (plants with two cotyledons, radicle not aborting and giving rise to mature root system, stems with vascular bundles in a ring and often showing sec- ondary growth, leaves with a network of veins forming a pinnate to palmate pattern, flowers 4- or 5-merous, and pollen grains predominantly tricolpate or modifications thereof) (Chase et al. 1993; Doyle 1996; Doyle et al. 1994; Donoghue and Doyle 1989). In all published cladistic analyses the “dicots” form a paraphyletic complex, and features such as two cotyle- dons, a persistent radicle, stems with vascular bundles in a ring, secondary growth, and leaves with net venation are plesiomorphic within angio- sperms; that is, these features evolved earlier in the phylogenetic history of tracheophytes.

  • Dietes Iridioides Subsp. Angolensis from Angola and Dietes Bicolor Subsp
    Page 1 of 6 Original Research Two new subspecies of Dietes (Iridaceae: Iridoideae), Dietes iridioides subsp. angolensis from Angola and Dietes bicolor subsp. armeniaca from eastern South Africa, with notes and range extensions for Dietes butcheriana and Dietes iridioides Authors: Background: Recent collections of Dietes have extended the known geographical range and 1 Peter Goldblatt morphological variation in several species. John C. Manning1,2 Objectives: To describe additional taxa in Dietes to reflect the morphological and geographical Affiliations: variation in the species more accurately and to record significant range extensions. 1Research Centre for Plant Growth and Development, Method: Recent collections were compared with existing herbarium material and published University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa literature. Results: Two new subspecies in Dietes are described, viz. Dietes iridioides subsp. angolensis 2South African National Biodiversity Institute, Cape from Angola, constituting the first record of the species from that country, andDietes bicolor Town, South Africa subsp. armeniaca from eastern South Africa, which represents a range extension into southern KwaZulu-Natal. We also document a range extension for the local endemic Dietes butcheriana Correspondence to: from KwaZulu-Natal into the Eastern Cape and discuss an anomalous population of Peter Goldblatt D. iridioides, with long-lived flowers, from near Hankey in the Eastern Cape. Email: [email protected] Conclusions: The range extensions and new infraspecific taxa increase our understanding of the diversity of Dietes in southern and south tropical Africa.
