Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 INTRODUCTION. The Vittarieae, as described by Christensen (1), comprises five genera, viz. Vjfrfrftrja, Monogramma,. Antronhvum. Hecistopterist and Anetium. all of whicij are epiphytic forms growing in the damp forests of the Old and New;World Tropics. All of them possess creeping rhizomes on which the frortds are arranged more or less definitely in two rows on the dorsal surface. The fronds are simple in outline with the exception of those of Heoistonteris which are dichotomously branched. The venation of the fronds is reticulate except in Heoistonteris where there is an open, dichotomous system of veins^An interesting feature, which has proved to be valuable as a diagnostic character, is the presence of "spicule cells" in the epidermis. -
APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program
APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program Midtown Alliance launched the Tree Well Adoption program with the primary goal of enriching the experience of Midtown’s workers and residents while encouraging sustainability through the use of low-water, urban tolerant plant species. This list of plants was created to aid individuals and organizations in selecting plant material to plant in their adopted tree wells. This plant list is intended to encourage individual character in the tree wells, rather than restrict creativity in the selection of plants. The plants on the approved list were selected based on the following criteria: • Perennial. All plants listed are perennial, meaning they last for two or more growing seasons. Once established, these plants will require less water to maintain than annuals. • Heat tolerant. Plants in tree wells are exposed to high temperatures caused by vehicles and heat reflected from surrounding buildings, asphalt, and other urban surfaces. They must also be tolerant to high daytime temperatures, typical of Atlanta’s summer months, and cold hardy in the winter months. Atlanta is located in USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7b/8a. • Water wise. Urban tree wells are surrounded by impervious surfaces and thus, are highly susceptible to periods of drought. Suitable plants must be able to survive periods of low rainfall. • Pollution tolerant. Vehicle exhaust may leave deposits and pollutants on plant foliage, which can kill sensitive plants. • Encourage wildlife. Flowering plants attract insects such as butterflies while others provide food sources for birds and other wildlife. • Grown locally. Many of the plants listed are native to the Atlanta area, and all can be found at local nurseries. -
Cyrtomium Falcatum, New to Tbe Italian Flora
Flora Mediterranea 3 - 1993 261 F. Bonafede, C. Ferrari & A. Vigarani Cyrtomium falcatum, new to tbe Italian flora Abstract Bonafede, F., Ferrari, C. & Vigarani, A. 1993: Cyrtomium falcatum, new to the Italian flora - Fl. Medil. 3: 261-264. 1993. - ISSN 1120-4052. The occurrence of a Cyrtomium falcatum population naturalized in the southem Po Valley (Emilia-Romagna region, Italy), is reported. This is the first record of the species for Italy, since all previous Italian findings of Cyrtomium belong to C. fortunei . The genus Cyrtomium C. PresI (Aspidiaceae) comprises about 20 species distributed mainly in the tropical and subtropical zones of Africa, America and Asia, in damp rocky habitats. Some authors include this genus in Polystichum on the basis of similarities in the morphology of the pinna and of the shield-shaped indusium. Cyrtomium falcatum (L. fil.) C. PresI is native to E. Asia and is cultivated as an omamental plant in Europe. Jalas & Suominen (1972), under the synonym Polystichum falcatum (L. fil.) Diels, report its being naturalized in Portugal and Great Britain, without giving further details of its European distribution. Badré & Deschatres (1979) include it among the French fem species as an alien naturalized near Nice. Specimens of Cyrtomium found in S. Switzerland near Brissago (Kramer in E. Pignatti & al) and in N. Italy (near Cannobio, in Lombardy, and on Mount Ragogna, in the Friuli Pre-Alps) alI to C. fortunei J. Sm. (S. Pignatti 1982; E. Pignatti & al. 1983), although the last-named one had at first been referred to as "e. falcatum" (Poldini 1980). The Cyrtomium population found by us grows on an old brick-walled well on a privately owned farm (P. -

African countries and neighbouring islands covered by the Synopsis. S T R E L I T Z I A 23 Synopsis of the Lycopodiophyta and Pteridophyta of Africa, Madagascar and neighbouring islands by J.P. Roux Pretoria 2009 S T R E L I T Z I A This series has replaced Memoirs of the Botanical Survey of South Africa and Annals of the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens which SANBI inherited from its predecessor organisations. The plant genus Strelitzia occurs naturally in the eastern parts of southern Africa. It comprises three arborescent species, known as wild bananas, and two acaulescent species, known as crane flowers or bird-of-paradise flowers. The logo of the South African National Biodiversity Institute is based on the striking inflorescence of Strelitzia reginae, a native of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal that has become a garden favourite worldwide. It sym- bolises the commitment of the Institute to champion the exploration, conservation, sustain- able use, appreciation and enjoyment of South Africa’s exceptionally rich biodiversity for all people.

Species Relationships and Farina Evolution in the Cheilanthoid Fern

Sigel , 1 , 3 Michael D. Windham , 1 Layne Huiet , 1 George Yatskievych , 2 and Kathleen M. Pryer 1 1 Department of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708 U. S. A. 2 Missouri Botanical Garden, P.O. Box 299, St. Louis, Missouri 63166 U. S. A. 3 Author for correspondence ( [email protected] ) Communicating Editor: Lynn Bohs Abstract— Convergent evolution driven by adaptation to arid habitats has made it difficult to identify monophyletic taxa in the cheilanthoid ferns. Dependence on distinctive, but potentially homoplastic characters, to define major clades has resulted in a taxonomic conundrum: all of the largest cheilanthoid genera have been shown to be polyphyletic. Here we reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the strictly New World cheilanthoid genus Argyrochosma . We use our reconstruction to examine the evolution of farina (powdery leaf deposits), which has played a prominent role in the circumscription of cheilanthoid genera. Our data indicate that Argyrochosma comprises two major monophyletic groups: one exclusively non-farinose and the other primarily farinose. Within the latter group, there has been at least one evolutionary reversal (loss) of farina and the development of major chemical variants that characterize specific clades. Our phylogenetic hypothesis, in combination with spore data and chromosome counts, also provides a critical context for addressing the prevalence of polyploidy and apomixis within the genus. Evidence from these datasets provides testable hypotheses regarding reticulate evolution and suggests the presence of several previ- ously undetected taxa of Argyrochosma. -

Morphological and Anatomical Adaptations to Dry, Shady Environments in Adiantum Reniforme Var
Morphological and anatomical adaptations to dry, shady environments in Adiantum reniforme var. sinense (Pteridaceae) Di Wu1, Linbao Li1, Xiaobo Ma1, Guiyun Huang1 and Chaodong Yang2 1 Rare Plants Research Institute of Yangtze River, Three Gorges Corporation, Yichang, China 2 Engineering Research Center of Ecology and Agriculture Use of Wetland, Ministry of Education, Yangtze University, Jingzhou, China ABSTRACT The natural distribution of the rare perennial fern Adiantum reniforme var. sinense (Pteridaceae), which is endemic to shady cliff environments, is limited to small areas of Wanzhou County, Chongqing, China. In this study, we used brightfield and epifluorescence microscopy to investigate the anatomical structures and histochemical features that may allow this species to thrive in shady, dry cliff environments. The A. reniforme var. sinense sporophyte had a primary structure and a dictyostele. The plants of this species had an endodermis, sclerenchyma layers and hypodermal sterome, reflecting an adaption to dry cliff environments. Blades had a thin cuticle and isolateral mesophyll, suggesting a tolerance of shady environments. These characteristics are similar to many sciophyte ferns such as Lygodium japonicum and Pteris multifida. Thus, the morphological and anatomical characteristics of A. reniforme var. sinense identified in this study are consistent with adaptations to shady, dry cliff environments.
