VOCABULARIO DE LOS NOMBRES VULGARES DE LA FLORA PERUANA· y CATALOGO DE LOS GENEROS EDITORIAL SALESIANA - LIMA PERU Preliminar La presente edición es la fusión corregida y aumentada del "Vocabulario" pu­ blicado en 1970 y de "Genera Peruviana", publicado en "Raymondiana" vol.3 pp.5-97, de fecha Diciembre de 1970. La primera edición del vocabulario tenía 1360 géneros con más de 4900 nombres populares. La presente edición sobre­ pasa los 2700 géneros y unos 6300 nombres vulgares. Se ha suprimido la Bibliografíay los pocos grabados pues requerfan unas 200 páginas más. Los interesados en la Bibliografía empleada la pueden encontrar casi en su totalidad en "Biota", vo/umenes /-IX. (1954-1979.) Notas En algunas familias, a continuación del nombre, hay entre paréntesis, dos nú­ meros: el primero indica el número de géneros que contiene la f ami/ia, y el otro el número de las especies conocidas. En los géneros, el primer número indica el total de especies descritas y el se­ gundo las que se han encontrado en el Perú. Si en Jugar del segundo número se encuentra un signo de interrogación, sig­ nifica que se desconoce el número de ellas en el Perú. En algunos casos, el nombre popular está seguido de una vocal entre parén­ tesis; esto indica que se pueden usar ambas formas, sin cambio de signmcado: conuca(o), Jo mismo es conuca o conuco; ckagne(i) Igual ckagne o ckagni. Para los nombres populares de la Amazonía peruana, nos fue útil el "Vocabu­ lario del Oriente Peruano" de Enrique Tovar (1888-1947) publicado en 1966. (sigla EDT.) A continuad6n señalamos las siglas de algunos botánicos, cuyas obras nos han ayudado a aumentar los nombres populares: (Cer.) Dra. EmmaCerrate de Ferreyra (J.M.G.)José M. Guallart,S.J.

  • Edaphic Factors and the Landscape-Scale Distributions of Tropical Rain Forest Trees
    Ecology, 80(8), 1999, pp. 2662±2675 q 1999 by the Ecological Society of America EDAPHIC FACTORS AND THE LANDSCAPE-SCALE DISTRIBUTIONS OF TROPICAL RAIN FOREST TREES DAVID B. CLARK,1,3 MICHAEL W. P ALMER,2 AND DEBORAH A. CLARK1 1Department of Biology, University of Missouri, 8001 Natural Bridge Road, St. Louis, Missouri 63121 USA 2Department of Botany, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078 USA Abstract. Tropical rain forests have the highest tree diversity on earth. Nonrandom spatial distributions of these species in relation to edaphic factors could be one mechanism responsible for maintaining this diversity. We examined the prevalence of nonrandom dis- tributions of trees and palms in relation to soil type and topographic position (``edaphic biases'') over a mesoscale (573 ha) old-growth tropical rain forest (TRF) landscape at the La Selva Biological Station, Costa Rica. All trees and palms $10 cm diameter were mea- sured and identi®ed in 1170 circular 0.01-ha plots centered on an existing 50 3 100 m grid. Topographic position was classi®ed for each plot, and slope and aspect were measured. Soil type data were taken from a previous study (Clark et al. 1998). A total of 5127 trees and palms were identi®ed in 267 species. Detrended Correspondence Analysis and Canon- ical Correspondence Analysis showed that highly signi®cant edaphic gradients were present, with swamp or highly fertile soils separated from the less fertile, well-drained upland soils. Species composition remained signi®cantly related to topographic position when soil type was controlled for. The main ¯oristic gradients were still signi®cant when ¯ooded sites were excluded from the analyses.

The New Caledonian biodiversity hotspot contains many micro-hotspots that exhibit high plant micro- endemism, and that are facing different types and intensities of threats. The Belep archipelago, and especially Île Art, with 24 and 21 respective narrowly endemic species (1 Extinct,21Critically Endangered and 2 Endangered), should be considered as the most sensitive micro-hotspot of plant diversity in New Caledonia because of the high anthropogenic threat of fire. Nano-hotspots could also be defined for the low forest remnants of the southern and northern plateaus of Île Art. With an average rate of more than one new species described for New Caledonia each month since January 2000 and five new endemics for the Belep archipelago since 2009, the state of knowledge of the flora is steadily improving.

Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous.

  • Revision of the Genus Cleidion (Euphorbiaceae) in Malesia
    BLUMEA 50: 197–219 Published on 22 April 2005 http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651905X623373 REVISION OF THE GENUS CLEIDION (EUPHORBIACEAE) IN MALESIA KRISTO K.M. KULJU & PETER C. VAN WELZEN Nationaal Herbarium Nederland, Universiteit Leiden branch, P.O. Box 9514, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands; e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] SUMMARY A revision of the Malesian species in the genus Cleidion is presented. Cleidion javanicum is shown to be the correct name for the widespread type species (instead of the name C. spiciflorum). A new species, C. luziae, resembling C. javanicum, is described from the Moluccas, New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. In addition, C. salomonis is synonymised with C. papuanum and C. lanceolatum is treated as a variety of C. ramosii. In total 7 Malesian Cleidion species are recognized. Cleidion megistophyllum from the Philippines cannot reliably be confirmed to belong to the genus due to lack of information and specimens and is treated as a doubtful species. Key words: Cleidion, Acalypheae, Cleidiinae, revision, taxonomy, Malesia. INTRODUCTION Cleidion is a pantropical genus belonging to the large angiosperm family Euphorbiaceae s.s. It was described by Blume (1825), who included a single species C. javanicum1. The first revision was made by Müller Argoviensis (1865, 1866). His work was fol- lowed by the comprehensive treatment of Pax & Hoffmann (1914), which included 17 species. Pax & Hoffmann excluded the section Discocleidion Müll.Arg. which differs from Cleidion by the presence of a staminate and pistillate disc (in Cleidion a disc is absent), stipellate and palmatinerved leaves (in Cleidion the leaves are non-stipellate and pinnatinerved), and differences in anther type.

E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al.

  • The Taxonomy of VACCINIUM Section RIGIOLEPIS (Vaccinieae, Ericaceae)
    BLUMEA 50: 477– 497 Published on 14 December 2005 http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651905X622743 THE TAXONOMY OF VACCINIUM SECTION RIGIOLEPIS (VACCINIEAE, ERICACEAE) S.P. VANDER KLOET Department of Biology, Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia, B4P 2R6 Canada SUMMARY Vaccinium section Rigiolepis (Hook.f.) Sleumer is revised for the Flora Malesiana region. In the introduction a short history of the genus (section) and its defining characters are presented followed by comments about Sleumer’s classification for this section. Numerical techniques using features suggested by Sleumer on ‘indet’ specimens at Leiden counsel a more conservative approach to species delimitation and the resultant revision for this section recognizes thirteen species including three new taxa, viz., V. crinigrum, V. suberosum, and V. linearifolium. Lectotypes for V. borneense W.W. Sm. and V. leptanthum Miq. are also proposed. Key words: Vaccinium, Rigiolepis, Malesia, new species. INTRODUCTION Since its inception in 1876, the genus Rigiolepis Hook.f. has been a perennial candidate for the Rodney Dangerfield ‘No Respect’ Award. All the other SE Asian segregates of Vaccinieae, such as Agapetes D. Don, Dimorphanthera F. Muell., and Costera J.J. Sm. have gained widespread acceptance among botanists, but not so Rigiolepis where even the staunchest supporters, viz., Ridley (1922) and Smith (1914, 1935) could not agree on a common suite of generic characters for this taxon. Ridley (1922) argued that Rigiolepis could be separated from Vaccinium by its epiphytic habit, extra-axillary racemes and very small flowers. Unfortunately, neither small flowers nor the epiphytic habit are unique to Rigiolepis but are widespread in the Vaccinieae; indeed V.

  • Plants and Gall Hosts of the Tirimbina Biological Reserve
    DOI 10.15517/RBT.V67I2SUPL.37233 Artículo Plants and gall hosts of the Tirimbina Biological Reserve, Sarapiqui, Costa Rica: Combining field sampling with herbarium records Plantas y hospederos de agallas de la Reserva Biológica Tirimbina, Sarapiquí, Costa Rica: combinando muestras del campo con registros del herbario Juan Manuel Ley-López1 José González2 Paul E. Hanson3* 1 Departamento Académico, Reserva Biológica Tirimbina. Sarapiquí, Heredia, Costa Rica; [email protected] 2 Independent consultant, Costa Rica; [email protected] 3 Escuela de Biología, Universidad de Costa Rica; San Pedro, 11501-2060 San José, Costa Rica; [email protected] * Correspondence Received 03-X-2018 Corrected 10-I-2018 Accepted 24-I-2019 Abstract There has been an increasing number of inventories of gall-inducing arthropods in the Neotropics. Nonetheless, very few inventories have been carried out in areas where the flora is well documented, and records of galls from herbaria and sites outside the study area have seldom been utilized. In this study we provide a checklist of the native vascular plants of a 345 ha forest reserve in the Caribbean lowlands of Costa Rica and document which of these plants were found to harbor galls. The gall surveys were carried out between November 2013 and December 2016. We also cross-checked our plant list with the previous gall records from elsewhere in the country and searched for galls on herbarium specimens of dicots reported from the reserve. In total, we recorded 143 families and 1174 plant species, of which 401 were hosts of galls. Plant hosts of galls were found in the following non-mutually exclusive categories: 209 in our field sampling, 257 from previous records, and 158 in herbarium specimens.

  • Number 3, Spring 1998 Director’S Letter
    Planning and planting for a better world Friends of the JC Raulston Arboretum Newsletter Number 3, Spring 1998 Director’s Letter Spring greetings from the JC Raulston Arboretum! This garden- ing season is in full swing, and the Arboretum is the place to be. Emergence is the word! Flowers and foliage are emerging every- where. We had a magnificent late winter and early spring. The Cornus mas ‘Spring Glow’ located in the paradise garden was exquisite this year.
