Evansia 30(1) 24 Disjunct occurrence of Harpanthus drummondii (Taylor) Grolle (Geocalycaceae, Jungermanniopsida) in the boreal forest of west-central Canada Richard T. Caners Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute Royal Alberta Museum, Edmonton, Alberta T5N 0M6, Canada Email: [email protected] Abstract: The liverwort Harpanthus drummondii (Taylor) Grolle (Geocalycaceae, Jungermanniopsida) is known mostly from temperate regions of eastern North America where it is restricted to dead wood in forests. Recently, the species was discovered in the boreal forest of west-central Canada, demonstrating a substantial disjunction from the next closest known occurrence. A distribution map is provided along with features that distinguish it from the closely related H. scutatus (F.Weber & D.Mohr) Spruce. Key Words: Boreal forest, dead wood, epixylic, Harpanthus scutatus, liverwort, phytogeography The liverwort Harpanthus drummondii (Taylor) Grolle (Geocalycaceae, Jungermanniopsida) was recently documented in west-central Canada, in the boreal mixedwood forest of northwestern Alberta. The species is known from a limited number of occurrences in eastern North America where it is restricted to dead wood in forests (Grolle 1965; Schuster 1980; Crum 1991; N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). The species can be found in both conifer and broadleaf forests, and also in mixed broadleaf-conifer stands such as Acer saccharum Marshall (sugar maple) – Fagus grandifolia Ehrh. (American beech) – Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carrière (eastern hemlock) forest (N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). Based on collections from a number of North American herbaria, the species has been recorded in Canada from N.B., Ont., and Que., and in the United States from Ky., Mass., Mich., N.C., N.H., N.Y., Pa., Vt., Wis., and W.Va. (Hicks and Davison 1989; Schafale and Weakley 1990; Crum 1991; Faubert 2007; Faubert et al. 2010; Consortium of North American Bryophyte Herbaria 2012; Global Biodiversity Information Facility 2012) (Figure 1). The species has also been recorded in the United States from Conn., S.C., and Va. (Schuster 1980). Schuster (1980) indicated the species had not been reported elsewhere worldwide but suggested that specimens of the closely related H. scutatus (F.Weber & D.Mohr) Spruce in Japan may in fact be H. drummondii. More recently, H. drummondii has been reported from the boreal forest of Russian Siberia (Bakalin et al. 2001). The occurrence of the species in western Canada is an intriguing and notable disjunction from the relatively conterminous distribution in eastern North America. The next closest record of Harpanthus drummondii in relation to the collection from Alberta, is more than 2100 km to the southeast along the southwestern shore of Lake Superior in Michigan (NYBG 254570). This record is from a collection made by L. S. Cheney in 1896. Apart from that historic collection the next closest record was more recently documented by J. Crowe in 1970 (LKHD 79100, 79101) from the Thunder Bay District of Ontario. Given that the species is being reported here for the first time in Alberta (Alberta Conservation Information Management System 2012), and that this represents a substantial range extension, a detailed account of the occurrence is provided. Harpanthus drummondii is closely related to H. scutatus and collections of these two species can be difficult if not impossible to name when lacking diagnostic features (Schuster 1980; N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). Both species are considered uncommon with H. scutatus supposedly being less frequent in eastern North America than H. drummondii (Schuster 1980; N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). The two species were recognized as taxonomically distinct by Grolle (1965) who was the first to Evansia 30(1) 25 Figure 1. Distribution of Harpanthus drummondii in North America. Specimen locations are based on collections from the following herbaria: ALTA, BH, CANM, DUKE, F, GH, LKHD, MICH, MO, NBM, NYBG, NYS, QFA, QK, TRT, UBC, UNAF, and WIN (herbarium abbreviations based on Thiers 2012), and from Schuster (1980). A few specimens lacked detailed location information and could only be mapped at the county level within a state or province. Map created by SimpleMappr (Shorthouse 2010). publish on this hepatic in North America. The main feature that distinguishes these species is the production of gemmae from the apices of erect, gradually attenuated shoots in H. drummondii that are lacking in H. scutatus. In H. scutatus, gemmae are always produced from short, ventral intercalary branches (Schuster 1980). In addition, Harpanthus drummondii differs in having the following gametophytic characters (Schuster 1980): plants very small (600)800‒1025 μm wide; leaves typically flat, laterally somewhat patent, little concave, and oblong-ovate to ovate, 560‒660(680) μm long × 500 ‒590(630) μm wide, and nearly symmetrical, with antical and postical margins subequal in length and subequally arched; weaker trigones; and oil bodies usually 2‒4 per cell. H. scutatus, in comparison, has larger plants, 1000‒1250 μm wide; leaves laterally patent to more commonly antically secund, somewhat concave, obliquely broadly ovate-orbicular to ovate-oblong, (450)600‒785 μm long × (400)650 ‒765 μm wide; both leaf margins somewhat convex, with the dorsal margin longer than the ventral and decurrent; cells with conspicuous to bulging, large trigones; and oil bodies (2)3‒5(7) to (3)5‒11(12‒14) per cell. Further, H. drummondii is apparently restricted to moist, decorticated logs, and is often found in association with other mesophytic epixylic liverworts (Muhle and LeBlanc 1975; Schuster 1980; N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). H. scutatus is most frequent at damp-to-wet sites on rocks, or moist peaty soil on poorly drained slopes, and Evansia 30(1) 26 is rarely found on decaying logs (Schuster 1980; N. Miller, pers. comm., 8 Feb 2010). Despite these differences, Schuster (1980, P293) indicates that H. drummondii and H. scutatus may be inseparable as species, with H. drummondii merely representing a weak epixylic form of H. scutatus. In this study, Harpanthus drummondii was collected at the Ecosystem Management Emulating Natural Disturbance (EMEND) research site in northwestern Alberta (Figure 2; centered on 56° 46' 13'' N, 118° 22' 28'' W). The collection was made on 13 July 2005 and then subsequently identified in November 2008. The EMEND experiment is located within the Lower Boreal Highlands Natural Subregion of the Boreal Forest Natural Region in Alberta (Natural Regions Committee 2006) (http://www.emend.rr.ualberta.ca). The subregion covers 55615 km2 in the province (15% of Boreal Forest Natural Region) and ranges in elevation from 400–1050 m a.s.l. (Natural Regions Committee 2006). Climate is continental with cold winters (mean January –20.0 °C) and short, warm summers (mean July 15.0 °C), with a mean annual frost free period of 97 days. Total mean annual precipitation in the subregion is 495 mm, with 334 mm falling as rain. Within the study area forests are variously dominated by Populus tremuloides Michx. (trembling aspen), P. balsamifera L. (balsam poplar), and Picea glauca (Moench) Voss (white spruce), with lower abundances of Picea mariana (Mill.) Britton, Sterns & Poggenb. (black spruce), Abies balsamea (L.) Mill. (balsam fir), Pinus contorta Douglas ex Loudon (lodgepole pine), and Betula papyrifera Marshall (paper birch). Harpanthus drummondii was documented at EMEND within a single forest stand that had been experimentally harvested during the winter of 1998/1999 with 10% of the canopy retained as dispersed green-tree retention (Figure 3). The stand had a mean elevation of 813 m a.s.l. and was classified before harvest as a "white spruce/green alder (Alnus viridis ssp. crispa [Aiton] Turrill)" plant community type within the "white spruce/low-bush cranberry (Viburnum edule [Michx.] Raf.)" ecosite phase (e4.1, Beckingham et al. 1996; EMEND core data). At the time of collection the forest canopy was dominated by white spruce, with lower abundances of trembling aspen, balsam poplar, and paper birch. Within this forest stand a single population of H.

Bot. Fennici 44: 450–462. Within the leafy liverworts, the evolution of the perigynium, the stem-derived struc- ture that protects the developing sporophytes, has been understood as merely a paral- lelism, and families that have this feature have been placed to various suborders. The present study suggests a single origin of the perigynium in the leafy liverworts and the presence of perigynium being a synapomorphy for the suborder Jungermanniineae. The phylogenetic analyses were conducted using thirty-four leafy liverworts including twelve genera bearing a perigynium, and sequence data for rbcL, rps4, trnL-F cpDNA and 26S nrDNA. Within the Jungermanniineae three monophyletic lineages are recog- nized: the Acrobolbaceae lineage, the Trichotemnomaceae–Balantiopsidaceae lineage, and the lineage consisting of Jungermanniaceae and its closest related Gymnomi- triaceae, Delavayellaceae, Geocalycaceae s. stricto, Antheliaceae, Calypogeiaceae and Gyrothyraceae. The long branches of the latter three families indicate that they are more isolated from a common jungermannioid ancestor. The family Jungermanniaceae is resolved as paraphyletic and its circumscription and relationships require further study.

Suding Spring 2013 Abstract Adaptive Traits and Community Assembly of Epiphyllous Bryophytes By Ekaphan Kraichak Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Brent D. Mishler, Chair Leaf surfaces of tropical vascular plants provide homes for diverse groups of organisms, including epiphyllous (leaf-colonizing) bryophytes. Each leaf harbors a temporally and spatially discrete community of organisms, providing an excellent system for answering some of the most fundamental questions in ecology and evolution. In this dissertation, I investigated two main aspects of epiphyllous bryophyte biology: 1) adaptive traits of bryophytes to living on the leaf surface, and 2) community assembly of epiphyllous bryophytes in space (between-hosts) and time (succession). For the first part, I used published trait data and phylogeny of liverworts in family Lejeuneaceae to demonstrate that only the production of asexual propagules appeared to evolve in response to living on the leaf surface, while other hypothesized traits did not have correlated evolution with epiphylly. The second portion dealt with the assembly of communities among different host types.

  • Phytochrome Diversity in Green Plants and the Origin of Canonical Plant Phytochromes
    ARTICLE Received 25 Feb 2015 | Accepted 19 Jun 2015 | Published 28 Jul 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms8852 OPEN Phytochrome diversity in green plants and the origin of canonical plant phytochromes Fay-Wei Li1, Michael Melkonian2, Carl J. Rothfels3, Juan Carlos Villarreal4, Dennis W. Stevenson5, Sean W. Graham6, Gane Ka-Shu Wong7,8,9, Kathleen M. Pryer1 & Sarah Mathews10,w Phytochromes are red/far-red photoreceptors that play essential roles in diverse plant morphogenetic and physiological responses to light. Despite their functional significance, phytochrome diversity and evolution across photosynthetic eukaryotes remain poorly understood. Using newly available transcriptomic and genomic data we show that canonical plant phytochromes originated in a common ancestor of streptophytes (charophyte algae and land plants). Phytochromes in charophyte algae are structurally diverse, including canonical and non-canonical forms, whereas in land plants, phytochrome structure is highly conserved. Liverworts, hornworts and Selaginella apparently possess a single phytochrome, whereas independent gene duplications occurred within mosses, lycopods, ferns and seed plants, leading to diverse phytochrome families in these clades. Surprisingly, the phytochrome portions of algal and land plant neochromes, a chimera of phytochrome and phototropin, appear to share a common origin. Our results reveal novel phytochrome clades and establish the basis for understanding phytochrome functional evolution in land plants and their algal relatives. 1 Department of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708, USA. 2 Botany Department, Cologne Biocenter, University of Cologne, 50674 Cologne, Germany. 3 University Herbarium and Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA. 4 Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH3 5LR, UK. 5 New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458, USA.
