  • Revision and Phylogeny of <I>Acalypha</I
    Blumea 55, 2010: 21–60 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/000651910X499141 Revision and phylogeny of Acalypha (Euphorbiaceae) in Malesia V.G. Sagun1,2, G.A. Levin2, P.C. van Welzen3 Key words Abstract Twenty-eight species of Acalypha are recognized in Malesia. Acalypha paniculata is the sole member of subgenus Linostachys in Malesia and the rest of the species belong to subgenus Acalypha. Four previously Acalypha synonymized species are resurrected as distinct species, namely A. angatensis, A. cardiophylla var. cardiophylla, Euphorbiaceae A. grandis, and A. wilkesiana. Four species names are newly reduced to synonymy. The molecular phylogenetic Malesia analyses indicate that Acalypha is monophyletic, as is the subgenus Acalypha. The early-diverging lineages in the phylogeny genus, and its closest outgroup, consist of African species. The Malesian species do not form a monophyletic group although the molecular data strongly support two small clades within the region that are morphologically homogene- ous. The classification system that Pax and Hoffmann applied to subgenus Acalypha, which is based primarily on inflorescence morphology, appears to be unsatisfactory and incongruent with the phylogenetic analyses. Published on 16 April 2010 INTRODUCTION Molecular systematics confirms the placement of Acalypha in Acalyphoideae s.s. and shows a close relationship between Acalypha L. is the third largest genus in the Euphorbiaceae Acalypha and Mareya Baill. (Wurdack et al. 2005, Tokuoka s.s. after Euphorbia L., and Croton L., having about 450 spe- 2007). Their relationship is supported by similar morphologi- cies worldwide (Webster 1994, Radcliffe-Smith 2001). In the cal characteristics, including laciniate styles, pendulous anther Malesian region, 28 species of Acalypha are recognized herein.

Wallace California Botanic Garden [formerly Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden], 1500 North College Avenue, Claremont, California 91711 ([email protected]) abstract An account of the extent, diversity, and importance of the Californian collections of Thomas Coulter in the herbarium (TCD) of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, is presented here. It is based on examination of collections in TCD, several other collections available online, and referenced literature. Additional infor- mation on historical context, content of herbarium labels and annotations is included. Coulter’s collections in TCD are less well known than partial duplicate sets at other herbaria. He was the first botanist to cross the desert of southern California to the Colorado River. Coulter’s collections in TCD include not only 60 vascular plant specimens previously unidentified as type material but also among the first moss andmarine algae specimens known to be collected in California. A list of taxa named for Thomas Coulter is included.

  • Harvard Recycling Update, Fall 2020 REMOTE LEARNING CHANGES
    Harvard Recycling Update, Fall 2020 REMOTE LEARNING CHANGES HARVARD TRASH The global pandemic has had dramatic effects on Harvard and its trash. Dorms have been de-populated; residential population of FAS, for example, is less than 25% of the 2019 count. Most classes are offered only virtually, and the majority of office staff works from home now. The net effect is that Harvard’s recycling and trash tonnage has dropped considerably. Tonnages for April, May and June 2020 were about one third of those the previous year. Ironically, the Covid lockdown may enable us to meet the Sustainability Plan’s goal of cutting our waste by 50% of 2006 levels by the end of this calendar year. Since FAS admonished students to bring only the minimum personal possessions to school this year, we anticipate a smaller Move-out. As we go to press, the College is requiring all freshmen to leave their dorms for the year by Sunday, 11-22-20. So not as many rugs, pillows, lamps and appliances will be donated as at a typical Move-out this fall. The pandemic is accelerating the trend towards on-line shopping, with its bulky box and plastic packaging. We are trying to promote those on-campus to empty, flatten, collapse and recycle all boxes for recycling. Cardboard is still a desirable recyclable commodity. In fact, with box generation down at restaurants and retailers, the industry demand has brought the price of cardboard up a small amount. Resilience is key to how we are going to beat this scourge, and flattening cardboard recycling boxes is a good way to accommodate the growth of this important element of our recycling stream.

Ludwigia glandulosa Walter subsp. brachycarpa C.-I Peng, subsp. nov. is morphologically distinct from the typical subspecies, with smaller capsules and leaves, different seed coat, and a restricted distribution. Epilobium sect. Pachydium (Fischer & C. A. Meyer) Hoch & K. Gandhi, comb. nov. refers to a distinctive group of species for- merly known as Boisduvalia Spach and as Epilobium sect. Boisduvalia (Spach) Hoch & P. H. Raven. And Chamaenerion speciosum (Decaisne) Hoch & K. Gandhi, comb. nov. is proposed for a distinctive Hima- layan species originally described in Epilobium. Keywords Boisduvalia, Chamaenerion, fireweeds, Ludwigia, nomenclature Introduction The plant family Onagraceae is known in considerable detail as a result of modern monographic studies of almost the entire family and numerous comparative morpho- logical analyses, summarized in Wagner et al. (2007). Recent phylogenetic analyses (especially Levin et al. 2003, 2004) provided much insight into the relationships in the family and necessitated many changes in the classification.

  • Recycling-Update-Fall-2014.Pdf
    Harvard Recycling Update KIERAN CLYNE JOINS RECYCLING SERVICES Fall 2014 Meet Kieran Clyne, our new Operations Supervisor for Harvard Recycling & Waste Services. Since this June, Kieran has overseen the day-to-day operations of Har- vard recycling driver routes, bulk recycling pickups, and contracted recycling, compost and trash services from Republic. Prior to coming to Recycling, Kieran was the Horticulturist managing the Harvard Organic Land- scape program. Kieran (rhymes with “steer-in”) knows the campus well and his presence has already sped up customer responsiveness, route efficiencies and equip- ment maintenance. If you have recycling, compost, or trash pickup requests going forward, please call Kieran at 617-496-4891. Continue to call Rob Gogan at 617- 495-3042 for waste audits, tonnage collection reports, receptacles and protocols for increased waste diversion, surplus requests and deliveries, and waste reduction is- sues. We look forward to enhanced customer service and operational efficiency with Kieran on board! Photo by Brian O’Connell FOOD WASTE BANNED FROM DISPOSAL As of October 1, 2014, a new state regulation prohibits the disposal of food waste into landfills; instead it must be reduced at the source, donated, or composted. Harvard Envi- ronmental Health and Safety, working with Harvard Recycling, has put together a guidance document to help people learn about and comply with the regulation. Please click the fol- lowing link and then the fourth document down the list entitled, “MassDEP Composting Requirements Guidance.” Please contact us if you have any questions about complying with the new regulation. Since 1997, Harvard has recovered food scraps from over 85% of the kitchens on campus.

Symplocarpus koreanus has long been considered to be conspecific with S. renifolius in Japan, but phylogenetic, morpholog- ical, and cytological data indicate its taxonomic distinction. Compared to S. renifolius, S. koreanus has a much smaller spathe and more spherical spadix with fewer, smaller flowers. Previous phylogenetic studies also sug- gested that S. koreanus is more closely related to nonthermogenic S. nipponicus than to S. renifolius in Japan. Like its nonthermogenic sister species, S. nipponicus, in Korea and Japan, S. koreanus is diploid (2n = 2x = 30), while S. renifolius in Japan is tetraploid (2n = 4x = 60). A detailed species description, geographical distribu- tion, major morphological differences between the species and a dichotomous key to the species in eastern Asia are provided.
