  • A Preliminary Treatment of the Genus Campylopus (Musci: Dicranaceae) in Central America Bruce H
    63 Tropical Bryology 1: 63-94, 1989 A preliminary treatment of the genus Campylopus (Musci: Dicranaceae) in Central America Bruce H. Allen Missouri Botanical Garden P.O. Box 299 St. Louis, Missouri 63166-0299, U.S.A. Abstract. There are 26 species of Campylopus in Central America. They are divided into three groups on the basis of two characters: the presence or absence in the costa of a ventral layer of enlarged, hyaline cells and the presence or absence in the stem of an outer hylodermis. Dicranum costaricensis Bartr. is transferred to Campylopus as C. valerioi nom. nov. Campylopus hoffmanii and C. standleyi are recognized as distinct species. Six new synonyms are proposed: C. straminifolius = C. densicoma; C. costaricensis = C. surinamensis; C. roellii = C. tallulensis; C. donnellii = C. zygodonticarpus; C. tuerckheimii = C. zygodonticarpus; C. sargii = C. zygodonticarpus.

The comparison with Asian, European, and North American material of Dicranoweisia intermedia proved the conspecifity of both taxa, which was corroborated by molecular data. Therefore, the distribution area of H. mulahaceni is extended to U.S.A., Canada, Greenland, and several Asian countries (Armenia, Georgia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan). We also tested the monophyly of Hymenoloma sensu Ochyra et al. (2003), by including in the analysis the Holarctic taxa assigned to the genus together with Chilean material identified as H. antarcticum (putatively synonymous with the type of Hymenoloma) and H.

A note on Pottia intermedia (Turner) Fürnr. (Pottiaceae, Bryop- sida) with special reference to its phylogeny and new localities in SW Japan. Hikobia 16: 67–78. Eight new localities of Pottia intermedia (Turner) Fürnr. are recorded from Honshu and Shikoku (Hiroshima, Kagawa and Ehime Prefs.), SW Japan. Although it is widely distributed in the world, this species is a rare moss in Japan and is previously known from Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu for Japan. Japanese populations of P. intermedia grow on soil in open sites, especially in citrus orchards. Analytical illustrations with SEM images of peristome, spores and leaf papillae and a discussion on the phyloge- netic position of this species are provided based on the materials collected.

Physical Description Location of Habitat Association on the Daniel Boone National Forest Rock outcrops appear in a variety of forms throughout the Daniel Boone National Forest (DBNF) on all administrative Districts. Outcrops generally occur as sandstone, limestone or to a lesser extent mudstone/siltstone/shale rock exposures. These outcrops can take several forms including: exposed rock on the surface of the landscape, glades, talus slopes and, in their most striking appearance, as cliffs. Cliffline associated caves and rockshelters are also found throughout the DBNF and are an important part of this habitat association. Caves that are not associated with clifflines are also part of this habitat association. Additional information regarding cave systems is delineated in the Karst water section of the Lotic Water Habitat Association. Rockshelters, either sandstone or limestone, are overhangs or shallow caves that may include dark zones and are usually located along clifflines throughout the Forest. Primary Landtype Associations (LTAs) on the DBNF which contain elements of the Rock Outcrop Habitat Association include: • Central Knobstone Escarpment (221Hb0010 • Central Cliff (221Hb002) • North Fork Kentucky Cliffs (221Hb003) • Northern Escarpment (221Hb004) • Northern Low Hills/Cliff Transition (221Hb005) • Northern Cliff/Karst (221Hb006) • Southern Knobstone Escarpment (221Hc001) • Southern Knobstone Escarpment Transition (221Hc002) 07/15/2003 • Southern Cliff (221Hc003) • Big South Fork Plateau (221Hc004) • Rockcastle Hills (221Hc005) • London-Corbin Plain Transition (221Hc007) • Northwest Face Pine Mountain (M221Ce001) Much of the physical and vegetation description for the rock outcrop habitat association was taken from the above landtype association map unit descriptions (USDA, 1997).

  • Arctic Biodiversity Assessment
    310 Arctic Biodiversity Assessment Purple saxifrage Saxifraga oppositifolia is a very common plant in poorly vegetated areas all over the high Arctic. It even grows on Kaffeklubben Island in N Greenland, at 83°40’ N, the most northerly plant locality in the world. It is one of the first plants to flower in spring and serves as the territorial flower of Nunavut in Canada. Zackenberg 2003. Photo: Erik Thomsen. 311 Chapter 9 Plants Lead Authors Fred J.A.
