Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

(Myrsinaceae) in north eastern India (Thysanoptera: Tubulifera: Phlaeothripidae) With 11 figures Heishnam Taptamani, Ramaiyer VAratharajan and A nantanarayanan Raman Summary Biology of the epiphyllous roll-gall-inducing Thlibothrips manipurensis was studied on Ardisia sp. under laboratory conditions. T manipurensis laid eggs linearly along the margins of tender leaves. Eggs hatched in 6.8 d and the larval duration was 3.4 and 8.2 d for larvae I and II, respectively. After 20.2 h as prepupa, T manipurensis grew into pupa; adult emergence occurred in 4 d. Each female laid 34±7 eggs and the mean longevity of the adult was 10.2 d. Increase in thrips numbers correlated with the age of the gall: 15 individ- uals/gall occurred in young (4—10 d) galls, whereas 28 occurred in mature (20 d) galls, and 36 in old (25 d) galls. Male-female ratio in old galls was 1:5. Mature galls included a homogeneous tissue structure, made of 12-15 layers of parenchyma cells with no distinction into spongy and palisade cells. -

(Primulaceae) from Guangxi, China SHI-ZHONG MAO1 & CHI-MING HU2,3 1Guangxi Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guilin 541006, China 2South China Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou 510650, China 3Author for correspondence. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new species of Ardisia (Primulaceae), A. rubricaulis S. Z. Mao & C. M. Hu from Guangxi, China is described and illustrated. The new species belongs to Ardisia subgen. Crispardisia which is characterised by leaves with marginal glands (vascularized nodules). Its affinity is with A. maculosa Mez, but can be easily distinguished from the latter by its lateral and glandular puberulent inflorescence and by the underside of leaves and corolla-lobes being densely black- punctate. Key words: Myrsinoideae, new species, taxonomy, southwestern China Introduction Ardisia Swartz (1788: 48) is a large genus in the Primulaceae comprising more than 500 pantropical species, of which about 400 are distributed in Asia. According to Hu & Vidal (2004), south China and Indochina is one of the main centres of species diversity for this genus. In the newly published “Flora of China”, Chen & Pipoly (1996) recorded 65 species, of which 38 occur in Guangxi Province. During recent field work undertaken in southern Guangxi, the first author collected many specimens of Ardisia. In the course of identifying these specimens based on herbarium vouchers and consulting the types of related species from IBSC, IBK, and photographs of the types from PE, KUN and NY, we found a plant differing from the already described species. -

The new species is unique in the relatively large, almost orbicular leaves with entire margins, and the tetramerous flowers arranged in axillary fascicles without forming short shoots. Keywords: Papuasia, Malesia, Myrsinaceae, Rapanea, taxonomy Introduction Myrsine Linnaeus (1753: 196) is a pantropical genus of c. 280 species, and now includes all taxa previously placed in the paleotropical genus Rapanea Aublet (1775: 121) and the New World genus Suttonia A.Richard (1832: 349). Traditionally, Rapanea was considered distinct from Myrsine based on the absence of well-defined filaments and style, but these characters have been shown to intergrade between species of the different genera. Pipoly (2007) and Takeuchi & Pipoly (2009) further discuss character variation in the genera in New Guinea, and formally completed the transfer of the eastern Malesian names of Rapanea to Myrsine. -

Taxonomic Significance of Stamens and Pollen Morphology of Some
eISSN: 2357-044X Taeckholmia 40 (2020): 1-11 Taxonomic significance of stamens and pollen morphology of some selected taxa of Primulaceae in Egypt Mona Adel Shiha Biology and Geology Department, Faculty of Education, Alexandria University Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The circumscription study of Primulaceae is still uncertain and remains controversial. Stamens and pollen grains morphological characters of five species and one variety representing five genera viz., Anagallis, Lysimachia, Coris, Primula and Samolus of Primulaceae in Egypt have been studied using LM and SEM. The specific target of the present study is to evaluate the taxonomic value of the macro and micromorphological characters of stamens and pollen grains in order to distinguish between the studied species. The obtained results showed remarkable variations in anther shape, anther dehiscence, filament attachment and presence of trichomes on the anther filament. Pollen grains are radially symmetrical, isopolar, spheroidal-subprolate to prolate, with amb angulaperturate or fossaperturate and tricolpate or tricolporate. Tectum is microreticulate, reticulate with perforated lumine and clavate exine ornamentation. Out of the studied taxa Coris monspeliensis is distinguished by the presence of prominent margo, reticulate exine ornamentation, minute luminal perforations decreasing towards the colpi, orbicular anther shape, latrorse dehiscence of anthers with short longitudinal slit and presence of glandular diseriate trichomes at the base of the filaments. Clavate exine ornamentation as well as lanceolate anther shape, extrorse dehiscence and short filament can distinguished Samolus valerandi from the remaining studied taxa. An artificial key for the studied species was constructed based on stamens and pollen morphological criteria is provided. Keywords: Anther dehiscence, Exine ornamentation, Primulaceae, Pollen grain, Stamen Introduction Primulaceae (order Ericales) controversial. -

Ardisia squamulosa , Pr. Similar species Summary Ardisia elliptica is a shade tolerant evergreen tree whose fast growth and attractive fruit made it a popular ornamental plant in the past. It has escaped from private and public gardens to invade natural areas. Due to high reproductive output and high shade-tolerance, carpets of seedlings can form underneath adult trees. High seed viability (99%) and seed consumption by both avian and mammalian frugivores can lead to rapid spread across a landscape. view this species on IUCN Red List Species Description Ardisia elliptica is a tropical understorey shrub that can reach heights of up to 5 metres. Undamaged plants in forest habitats are characterised by a single stem, producing short, perpendicular branches. Leaves are elliptic to elliptic-obovate, entire, leathery and alternate. Most plants in South Florida have pink to red coloured petioles, although some populations have light green petioles. Umbellate inflorescences develop in leaf axils of branch leaves. Petals are light pink. Fruits are drupes that first turn red as they mature and then deep purple/black. Pulp from the fruits will stain fingers a deep purple. Seeds are approximately spherical with a diameter of about 5mm. Notes Ardisia elliptica readily invades moist disturbed forests, however, it has also been able to invade relatively undisturbed sites. Its fast growth and attractive fruit made it a popular ornamental plant in the past. -
