The species is endemic to Napa, Solano, and Yolo counties, California, where it grows in vernal pools, vernal swales, and other moist areas in grasslands. Associated species include wetland and upland grasses and forbs typically found in the vernal pool-grassland ecotone.

IN the present paper an attempt ha been made to give a critical descriptive account of the American specie of ~he subfamily Boragi­ noideae now known from south of Panama. The specie of thi group were last brought together in the general account of the whole sub­ family published in 1 46 in the 10th volume of DeCandolle' Pro- - dromus. Since the appearance of this scholarly treatment great changes have come about, the generic classification ha been well nigh remade and the great abundance of the group in the Chilean flora has become known, the recognized species being much more than doubled. The subfamily having the South American di tributional center in Chile, the recent work dealing most extensively with the e plant is Reiche's account of the family published serially in the .A.nale de la Universidad de Chile (vol. cxxi) in 1907 and 1908 and as part of his Flora de Chile (vol. v) in 1910. This treatment is very di appointing, for through the author's careless and often manife tly inaccurate in­ terpretations of the Philippian species, the type of which he might have studied, he has only added to that confusion in the literature on the Chilean flora that first arose from R.

  • Boraginaceae), with an Emphasis on the Popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys)
    Diversification, biogeography, and classification of Amsinckiinae (Boraginaceae), with an emphasis on the popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys) By Christopher Matthew Guilliams A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Bruce G. Baldwin, Chair Professor David Ackerly Professor Brent Mishler Professor Patrick O'Grady Summer 2015 Abstract Diversification, biogeography, and classification of Amsinckiinae (Boraginaceae), with an emphasis on the popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys) by Christopher Matthew Guilliams Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Bruce G. Baldwin, Chair Amsinckiinae is a diverse and ecologically important subtribe of annual herbaceous or perennial suffrutescent taxa with centers of distribution in western North America and southern South America. Taxa in the subtribe occur in all major ecosystems in California and more broadly in western North America, from the deserts of Baja California in the south where Johnstonella and Pectocarya are common, north to the ephemeral wetland ecosystems of the California Floristic Province where a majority of Plagiobothrys sect. Allocarya taxa occur, and east to the Basin and Range Province of western North America, where Cryptantha sensu stricto (s.s.) and Oreocarya are well represented. The subtribe minimally includes 9 genera: Amsinckia, Cryptantha s.s., Eremocarya, Greeneocharis, Harpagonella, Johnstonella, Oreocarya, Pectocarya, and Plagiobothrys; overall minimum-rank taxonomic diversity in the subtribe is ca. 330-342 taxa, with ca. 245--257 taxa occurring in North America, 86 in South America, and 4 in Australia. Despite their prevalence on the landscape and a history of active botanical research for well over a century, considerable research needs remain in Amsinckiinae, especially in one of the two largest genera, Plagiobothrys.

  • Cryptantha of Southern California
    Crossosoma 35(1), Spring-Summer 2009 1 CRYPTANTHA OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Michael G. Simpson and Kristen E. Hasenstab Department of Biology San Diego State University San Diego, California 92182 USA [email protected]; [email protected] (Current address for K. Hasenstab: Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, Claremont, 1500 N. College Ave., California 91711) ABSTRACT: The genus Cryptantha (Boraginaceae) contains 202 species, with 49 species and 56 taxa (including varieties) occurring in Southern California, defined here as including the entire Southwestern California region and Tehachapi Mountain region of the California Floristic province, the entire Desert province, and most of the White and Inyo Mountain subregion of the Great Basin province. The purposes of this article are 1) to summarize the current taxonomy of Cryptantha species and infraspecies in Southern California; 2) to provide taxonomic keys and images illustrating the diagnostic features for identification; and 3) to review the distribution, environmental factors, and current conservation status of these taxa. KEYWORDS: Cryptantha, Boraginaceae, taxonomy, identification. INTRODUCTION Taxonomic History and Nomenclature Cryptantha Lehmann ex G. Don, commonly known as “popcorn flower” or “cat’s eye,” is a genus within the family Boraginaceae. The circumscription of this family has changed repeatedly over the last twenty years [Engler and Prantl 1897, Heywood et al. 2007, Gottschling et al. 2001, Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG II) 2003], with various authors recognizing either a broad or narrow family concept. Here we accept the APG II (2003) system of classification, which recognizes a broad Boraginaceae. As treated in this manner, the family may be divided into subfamilies Boraginoideae, Cordioideae, Eretioideae, Heliotropoideae, Hydrophylloideae, and (possibly) Lennoideae (see Stevens 2001 onwards).
